The Wright J65 was an axial-flow turbojet engine produced by Curtiss-Wright under license from Armstrong Siddeley. A development of the Sapphire, the J65 powered a number of US designs.

The Armstrong Siddeley Sapphire is a British turbojet engine that was produced by Armstrong Siddeley in the 1950s. It was the ultimate development of work that had started as the Metrovick F.2 in 1940, evolving into an advanced axial flow design with an annular combustion chamber that developed over 11,000 lbf (49 kN).

Production began in 1952 and ended in 1957; a total of 10,023 J65 engines were built by Wright and Buick. It powered aircraft such as the Republic F-84 Thunderstreak and RF-84F Thunderflash, the Martin B-57A and RB-57B Canberra, the North American FJ-3 and FJ-4 Fury, Douglas A4D-1 Skyhawk, Grumman F-11 Tiger, and Chance-Vought Regulus missile.

It also had a J65 turbojet engine with 7,220-pound thrust output, which gave the F model more speed than the F-86H, which was at that time the fastest American jet.

The use of gaseous hydrogen operating altitude of the J65-B-3 as a fuel greatly increased the maximum turbojet engine. With JP-4 fuel the maximum altitude for stable canbustion was from about 60,000 to 65,000 feet , and the ult irnate blowout limit …
