Re: Fairey Gannet's Double Mamba
The Gannet used a turboprop, isn't jet fuel, like J2 as used for the Jumo 004, close or even practically the same as ordinary diesel?
The Su 25 is reported to run on about every type of fuel you could find at a regular roadside fuel station, that's even more impressive!
