Not a Ford Engine. F-Type came out in 2013 and was designed well after Ford sold Jaguar (and Land Rover) to TATA in 2008.
Secondly, the AJ133 V8 and the AJ126 V6 (which is based on the V8) were designed completely in-house by JLR and have NOTHING to do with any Ford engine!
Not the Coyote 5.0 V8, not the Duratec 3.0 V6. The AJ133 came out in 2009 and the AJ126 in 2012.
As I have explained countless times the confusion arises because the AJ133 and AJ126 were both initially built in a part of the Ford engine plant in Bridgend (Wales UK) under a deal between JLR and Ford, and as a result of this many parts on these engines are stamped "FoMoCo". That deal expired in Dec 2020 and production of these engines was moved to JLRs new engine plant in Wolverhampton.
There MAY have been SOME Ford input to the design of the AJ133, seeing as it came out in 2009 and Ford sold JLR to TATA in 2008, but I have never seen or read of any concrete evidence either way. Neither engine has ever been factory fitted to a non-JLR vehicle.
