It was essentially the ultimate development of the company's Kestrel engine, which had seen widespread use in military aircraft of the pre-war period. Due to the wartime priority of Rolls-Royce Merlin development and production, the Peregrine saw limited use and was cancelled with only 301 engines being built. During the 1930s the use of superchargers to increase "effective displacement" of an aircraft engine came into common use. Charging of some form was a requirement for high-altitude
Rolls-Royce/MAN Turbo RB193 RB.193 had accumulated 12 hours of flight time and 91 flights. A VFW VAK 191B aircraft fitted with an RB.193-12 is on display at the Deutsches Museum Flugwerft Schleissheim, panels have been removed to allow viewing of the rotating nozzle and mechanisms. Rolls-Royce/MAN Turbo RB193 The Rolls-Royce/MAN Turbo RB.193 is a vectored thrust turbofan engine designed and manufactured by Rolls-Royce and MAN Turbo in the mid-1960s. The engine test flew in its sole application, the VFW VAK 191B VTOL fighter aircraft but production did not follow after cancellation of the associated aircraft project. The RB.193 was a joint development project
