    Step aside, Merlin fanboys, a Gustaf with a Benz!

    I知 pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Thanks Bob, that has me reading about the DB605 engine.

    One big advantage over the Merlin is the use of direct fuel injection vs carbies.
    They were badly hamstrung by worse quality fuel and lubricants than the Allied planes.

    there's a nice cutaway drawing here Daimler-Benz DB 601
