The de Havilland Goblin (originally known as the Halford H.1) was one of the world’s first successful turbojet engines. First run in 1942, it went on to power iconic aircraft such as the de Havilland Vampire, Saab 21R, and even the first American jet, the Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star prototype. Its robust design and pioneering performance made it a cornerstone of early jet aviation history. (Wikipedia
