[Les réacteurs légers pour avions à décollage vertical] accompagnent [...] les moteurs à jet dirigés «Pegasus». [...] Étant destiné à n'être utilisé que lors du décollage et de l'atterrissage, donc pendant un temps très court par rapport à la durée de vol, ce moteur a été conçu pour une «durée de vie» limitée, ce qui a permis une construction très légère.
