The Rolls-Royce RB.183 Tay is a medium-bypass turbofan developed from the core of the RB.183 Mk 555 Spey, with a fan scaled directly from that of the RB.211-535E4 and an intermediate-pressure compressor and low-pressure turbine designed with RB.211 technology. It was first run in August 1984 and entered service in 1987 as the exclusive powerplant of the Gulfstream IV. The Tay 620-15 produces 13,850 lbf (63 kN) with a bypass ratio of 3.04 to 1 and powers the Fokker 70 and Fokker 100, the 650-15 was designed to re-engine the BAC One-Eleven, and the 651-54 re-engined Boeing 727-100 aircraft from 1992.
