|name=Screamer |country_of_origin=Britain |date=March 1954 (first static test) |purpose= |type=liquid |fuel=methanol |oxidiser=liquid oxygen (LOX) |pumps=Turbine-driven |manufacturer=Armstrong Siddeley |thrust=8,000 lbf }} The Armstrong Siddeley Screamer was a rocket engine intended to power the Avro 720 manned interceptor aircraft (Avro's competitor to the Saunders-Roe SR.53 for a rocket-powered interceptor). Thrust was variable, up to a maximum of {{convert|8000|lbf|kN|disp=flip|abbr=on}}.[1][2][3] Work on the Screamer started in 1946, with the first static test at Armstrong Siddeley's rocket plant at Ansty in March 1954.[4] The programme was cancelled, as was the Avro 720, before flight testing.[5] In 1951, a Gloster Meteor F.8 was experimentally fitted with a Screamer mounted below the fuselage.[1][6] The Screamer project was cancelled in March 1956, at a reported total cost of £650,000.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite journal |journal=Flight |title=Armstrong Siddeley Screamer |chapter= |url=http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1956/1956%20-%201014.html |type = PDF |date=27 July 1956 |pages=160–164 }} 2. ^{{cite journal |title=Rockets for Aircraft Propulsion |first=S., RAeS |last=Allen |journal=The Aeroplane |date=7 Dec 1951}} 3. ^{{cite journal |journal=Flight |title=ROCKET-MOTOR DESIGN:A Paper by the Chief Engineer of Armstrong Siddeley Motors (Rocket Division) |first=S., RAeS |last=Allen |url=http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1956/1956%20-%201483.html?search=screamer |type = PDF |date=19 October 1956 |accessdate=27 November 2014 |pages=637–638}} 4. ^{{cite journal |journal=Flight |title=Scorpion and Screamer |chapter= |url=http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1956/1956%20-%200930.html |format = PDF |date=13 July 1956 |pages=76 |ref=Flight, 13 July 1956, Scorpion and Screamer}} 5. ^{{cite book |title=A Vertical Empire: The History of the UK Rocket and Space Programme, 1950-1971 |author=C.N.
