Air squadron Bulldogs - a question about speed!

I spent several happy years learning to the Dog with NUAS from 89-91 and then again when they turned up at civilian flying schools and one thing has always intrigued me.

If I remember flat out was 140kts IAS, nav was flown at 25/25 120kts IAS indicated, 12 gals per hour. None of the civilian versions I have flown get anywhere near this - more like 125kts and 110-115kts at 25/25.

I so my question is this, is my memory wrong or did the Air Squadron versions put out significantly more than 200HP?

thanks!
