    • @jakobc.2558

      Why is this myth everywhere? It isnt true.
      The engine in use is Wright R-975 Whirlwind which was not used by any allied combat or cargo aircraft of world war 2. It was only installed on trainer aircraft Like the BT-11.
      The reason why the U.S. went with the radial engine was because tank engines had no industrial use whatsoever prior to world war 2. And since the pre world war 2 U.S. military was extremely underfunded and had not been prepairing for war since 1933 like every one of the fashist countrys, they had not developed proper tank engines (as they lacked the funding).
      That being said, the R-975 was a realy good choice. It was already extensively trialed on the M2 Medium and had proven to be extremely reliable (which was important for the U.S. army as they were working against the clock trying to supply the british in north africa with usable tanks as fast as possible), it was more powerfull then the piston engine on the Pz.III and Pz.IV and since it was large the M4 Sherman needed a large engine bay which meant that there was plenty of space to intigrate other engines into the sherman later down the line (M4A2 twin diesel engine, M4A3 Ford V8 engine, M4A4 Chrysler Multibank engine, M4A6 trialed multifuel radial engine).

    They always have to turn those radials a few revs by hand first. Thats why you see the ground crew pushing the props around before starting. Oil leaks past the rings into the bottom cylinders if they just hit the starter it can crack the head, oil can't compress as air does.

    • @genericpersonx333
      @genericpersonx333 3 роки тому +10

      Yeah, the reality is that the majority of German vehicles were destroyed in the course of the war and almost no one was trying to keep the remaining ones intact after the war until well into the 1980s, by which point there were precious few left to save. At best, a few hundred of any type survived the conflict in any usable shape, and most of those were quickly scrapped by their new owners, expended in testing, or run-to-death by poorer post-war armies. Syria, for example, basically bought nearly every Panzer IV and spare part for them left in the world in the 1940s and 1950s, only to see most of them destroyed in battle, thus ensuring precious few Panzer IVs of any kind are left to us now, let alone in operational order.

Add to that that the engine draws air from the fighting compartiment, so trough the same hatches you stick your head trough. The result is that you have to cloth yourself very well or suffer terrible cold.

    The US had no engines that produced near 500 HP except for those in obsolete bi planes when they entered the war. They designed a diesel engine most of those went to the Marines and a model powered by 5 Chrysler car engines that the British favored and used in their Firefly models. Airplane engines where common in tanks the Panther and Tiger tanks where powered by Maybach V12 a company know for making Zeppelin engines. The British Cromwell, Comet and Centurion tanks where powered by the Meteor V12 a modified version of the Merlin engine that powered the Spitfire, Lancaster, Hurricane, and Mosquito

      @@xzqzq actualy the ussr was the only country wich had a dedicated tank engine that lasted them trough the whole war without much issues. Tank weights (and sometimes desired speeds) increased dramaticaly during ww2 wich meant most countrys struggled to find a desent, small yet powerfull and reliable tank engine. That is why the us grabbed the next best thing available for most of there shermans, a downtunned aircraft engine. That way they had reliable and good power. The downside of this was an engine with less than optimal dimensions for a tank.

      if my understanding of the engineering behind this stuff is correct, high octane fuel is less susceptible to pre-detonation.
      As a result you can reconfigure the engine geometry to give you higher compression ratios, which means more power.
      If you're only going to use low-octane fuel it works, but you have to then reconfigure the geometry for a smaller max compression, otherwise it'll knock (pre-detonate)
      Less compression means less power but this can use the cheaper fuel safely

      Have you ever firewalled a loaded 6-71 up a hill? The sound is wild. Even God can hear you. Now consider the 6046 is two put together. The radial has much more displacement with a less restrictive exhaust, so there is that. Still the diesel sound is scary for little kids and the uninitiated. This tank driving by is pretty par for the day vs something with a potentially blown out exhaust throwing off a cloud of fire and brimstone that sounds like a beat up angry scalded demon [see the Ford L9000 on This Guy's Stuff and Stuff channel if you don't know how the sound can get]. You will historically be firewalling the M10 up some big ass grades riding right on the governor where you otherwise would overrev the radial to disaster.

      @@lector-dogmatixsicarii1537 Well that's just what I heard. And also from the videos I saw where they roll up both kind of vehicles (Shermans and M10s alike), the radial and the Ford GAA just overshadows the diesel of the M10 in sound.

If you operate them with any sort of straight through exhaust especially, wear your hearing protection unless you want to be like the rest of us with hearing loss.
