I was a bit confused by the BBC's link to 'Cosworth supplied the engine' to find that Cosworth were indeed providing a Formula1 engine - that's definately not fitted in a Typhoon!
Then I returned to reading the original article -
Quote:
Bloodhound's Falcon rocket will be the biggest hybrid (solid fuel propellant, liquid oxidiser) booster ever produced in the UK. Such is its scale, it will need a Formula One engine supplied by the legendary Cosworth group just to pump the oxidiser through the motor.
