Big Tank Engines Starting Up And Sound

The Leo1 sound is amazing and also a planned part of the design. When you hear Leos coming through the forrest its almost impossible to tell witch direction they come from or how many they are. I spent a year on a Leo1 and the sound it what Im missing.

[@yourbigfan1777]

Big block V12s are the most satisfying engines ever

[@XY_Dude]

This was really far out! Reminds me of when I was in Ft. Irwin, where we had M48A2 tanks. Engines were run on test stands w/o any mufflers. Inside the shop, you could feel your chest being pounded with the loud sound!

[@Slaktrax]

Mistake or error @2:48 you have info for the AV1790 and not the R-975. 🙂

[@adriaanboogaard8571]

[@p6x2]

It is a pity there aren't any video about the French designed V8 1500 HP using Hyperbar technology. As a former AMX employee, I participated to the trials of that engine that later became the powertrain of the Leclerc. The major issue that was finally solved was the lag, exactly like a conventional turbo charged engine.

[@jbm8444]

The continental V12 is actually a radial.

[@alanantoniobre189]

Maybach for ever... 🖤

[@kubanskiloewe]

i did service these engines in my army time back in their good days together with the first Leo2 A4. I can asure you we mech´s loved the sound of the V10 a lot more because no turbo was destracting the exhaust sound and flow ! It has radial superchargers.

[@paoloviti6156]

Always great to hear those massive engines roaring to life! Absolutely cool 😎 👍👍

[@briananthony4044]

[@barrybickle7992]

AV 1790 was not aV 12. It was a round engine (radial)

[@eugeneoreilly9356]

While there was radial tank engines the AV1790 wasn't one of them.

[@Phipsi333]

Plus that the number of cylinders in a radial configuration is never even. It would never be a 12 cylinder

[@gilbertdavies]

Very good video thank you. I'm pretty certain the Continental W670 depicted Was a nice old air cooled radial, or round engine, as the Americans call it... NOT a V12 liquid cooled. Ducted fan cooled modified aircraft engine. I'm not a rivet counter, I just worked on a few of them.👍

[@annpeerkat2020]

pretty similar sort of shape though aren't they... easy to get mixed up. ahem! Though I'd be rather interested to see how such an engine would be shoe horned into an armoured vehicle.

[@gilbertdavies]

@@annpeerkat2020 Pretty easy for an old bloke like me Ann..I get very confused😃! ..I ought to know.. I've worked on V12 Merlins(Spitfires, etc) Lycoming, & Continental radials ( Stearman, Ag-cat etc.). Best times👍

[@gilbertdavies]

Sorry! 220hp Continental radials were used in the DUWCs/Landing craft on D day, if you stooge around the dunes on the Normandy coast, there's still a few wrecks there. Also, the Sherman tank had radials, some had GM liquid cooled engines. NOW..before you start taking the Mickey..NO..Im not THAT OLD.

[@krisholt8390]

The W670 was in a handful of early light tanks, mounted vertically the same an aircraft due to the sump return. A slightly different variant of the W670 was used in a number of aircraft.

[@gilbertdavies]

@@krisholt8390 Spot on Kris.👍

[@RuralTowner]

3:00 Pretty sure that's a rotary engine & not a V

[@GVBiggs524]

Did i read that correctly when they stated that the radial engine used in Shermans was a V-12.

that is the wrong engine.

[@Scott-sb1xi]

Where can a person go to hear/see all these tanks up close? In the USA

[@jameshanlon2998]

Just a note, the continental wright r-975 was NOT a diesel engine as shown in the video. It was a 9 cylinder radial gasoline engine. There was also a 15 cylinder variant that was used very little.

[@annpeerkat2020]

Only in Russia, a 38 l V12 makes a meager 580 Hp. These V12 have a beautiful sound. The Leopard sounds as badass as it looks.

[@T-10M]

More modern Russian Diesel engines have more than 1,000 horsepower, like on the T-90 and T-72B3.

[@levilastun829]

The V-55 naturally aspirated engine makes 580 hp and 2255 nm of torque. The V-84 engine with a centrifugal supercharger makes 840hp and 3335 nm of torque. And the most powerful variant is the V-92S2F, which is turbocharged and makes 1130hp and 3967 nm of torque.

[@bombud1]

the sheridan wasnt light weight with better suspension to improve power to weight and cross country. the lighter weight and suspension was so it could be airdropped by parachute. turns out the armor being so light made the tank so weak, it never caught on and the program was abandoned.

That in the Video was clearly a Leopard 2 12-Zyl Powerpack. This engine has 47,8l of displacement. Some sources vary on the last digit (47,6 or 47,7) but that should not really matter. Drove it myself and know that for sure from first hand. Until the newest variant the engine was never really updated. The other (second) MTU Engine was the 10-Zyl from the Leopard 1.
