Are we talking about the WWII Rolls-Royce Merlin airplane engine? WHY

would the
RAF STILL be using THOSE?


Didn't see any previous posts - but the EH.101 Merlin perhaps?

Mentioning the Merlin, is it true that it's designation 101 is a typo? Heard
it was too expensive/awkward to bother changing once the typo had been
noticed.
