This sale is for one fully functional Williams WR27-1 Turbine Engine , Running and Complete. The Williams WR27-1 APU is used as an air producer for starting the S3 Viking Anti Submarine Aircraft, it is also equipped with a 400Hz generator. You will need to add a 24V power source ,a small hydraulic power unit (available here [link removed by ]) and fuel to start. They incorporate a 5kva @115V x 400HZ generator running off an auxiliary reduction gearbox and an oversized compressor turbine producing 69.8 lb/min @ 50.9 psia air flow for starting larger jet engines.

Being fully self contained including oil pump/reservoir/cooler, fuel pump/controller, hydraulic starter(these engines can be converted to electric start)and various ancillary systems. These units were decommissioned prior to any failure as the aircraft they were used in were replaced by newer designs . As such they are removed with more than 50% useful life remaining and should be suitable for any ground based usage . They are easily converted to thrust or the extra compressor air, used to start larger engines , may lend itself to supercharge the engine boosting power output. The \"rated\" HP is 70-80hp however it was , and is, common practice for defense contractors to \"de-rate\" an existing engine as much as 50% .in order to meet offer parameters thereby avoiding the expense of designing an entirely new engine.
