According to Gunston's book on Rolls-Royce aero engines, the stroke of this engine was 5.125" (slightly more than 130mm) and so the displacement was 2817 cubic inches or about 46.16 litres. 217.205.121.71 17:12, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Eagle 22?
Where is the name Eagle 22 coming from? In Fly Navy, Ray Williams refers to it as the R-R 46 Eagle. Emoscopes Talk 12:07, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- Presumably from Gunston's small "World Encyc. of Aero Engines", where the photo of this Eagle is captioned as a "Mk 22". However I think that's a Mk within the late-war Eagle series, not a defining identifier for the engine overall. Andy Dingley (talk) 01:05, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
