The increased airflow really helped Kelly’s inlet performance.
Where would the intake contribution to the +47% come from? ie not the fundamentals of where intake thrust comes from, but specifically what would have caused the change.
eg would it have been from upsizing the intake to handle the +22% engine flow and hence a greater area of rear-facing surfaces?
