At M2.0, only 50% of the total thrust comes from the engine - the other 50% comes from the intake system and exhaust nozzle assembly.
Does that therefore mean that should Concorde suffer a quadruple engine failure, whilst cruising at M2.0, it would still have 50% thrust available from the 'intake system and exhaust nozzle assembly' ?
