Again a reduction in max rpm does nothing other than change the top speed of the tank as long as it doesn't drop below the max torque range. So that the HL230 engines' max rev limit was reduced from 3,000 to 2,500 rpm had no negative effect on the tanks' mobility in any way what'so'ever. Also...

Regarding slave labour once more. What m kenny once more fails to understand is that there is ZERO evidence of slave labour being used for assembling Tiger tanks, furthermore simple logic points toward that it wasn't the case as Tiger was a very complex and expensive machine to build; Not...

Unlike what m kenny here claims I haven't been lying, that is something he is guilty of himself, and not just on this forum. The pictures I presented I found on my harddrive and uploaded them. I have them in a folder for themselves. I checked in various books the origins of the photos as-well...

More pictures from Lisow:

Hiding deformation? What is it you don't understand? That max torque (i.e. pulling power), isn't reached at max revs? Also I really don't hope what you just said is an example of how you change gears when you're driving (if you're old enough for that that is), flooring the gas pedal and then...

The F4U was overall the superior fighter, there's no doubt about that, it was more maneuverable and faster than the P-47. It was only at high altitudes that the P-47 was better. Both were great a/c though.

All the pictures of the Tiger Ausf.B in my recent post #64 were taken during German testing at Kummersdorf during the war. The Tiger Ausf.B recieved by Sweden after the war:

Did you not read what I wrote? 1. The data is from Jentz (not me!). 2. It's actual test results! 3. The top road speed of a tank is of ZERO importance, it doesn't even begin to define how mobile a tank is, the tanks obstacle clearing abilities on the other hand have everything to do with...

Page 71 from the Tigerfibel: Once more the correct translation is: Panzergranate 39: Pierces tanks and defenses out to 2000m Panzergranate 40: Pierces the heaviest tanks out to 1500m. (Dispersion) First use it when the Panzergranate isn't sufficient.

Page 76 from the Tigerfibel: Directly translated: You are at fault, not the cannon. Out to 2000m the 8.8cm hits its mark. First at 3000m does it miss 1 out of 3 shots. At 4000m every 4th shot hits. (Dispersion.) Not exactly what m kenny claims.. Page 77 from the Tigerfibel (Lessons...

We can continue this discussion after you've read up on the Panther Tiger Alejandro, up until then discussing with you will be pointless. You didn't even know that the Panther Tiger featured two completely different steering mechanisms and transmissions, you actually claimed they were...

The Me262 was designed as a fighter, and featured great maneuverability at high speeds. Furthermore Galland wasn't shot up in a dogfight, he was bounced.

That's a fine picture, thanks for sharing it, Skip is the man when it comes to the 109, I trust him more than anyone on the bird.

Exactly how polite have you been yourself through this discussion? 1,850 Nm for 68 tons aint too bad for a WW2 tank, I do have ALL his books alejandro, and the exhaust system was a fine design, atleast in the end. Hitler requested a 150mm gacis and 80mm sides, thats it, again he had...

The test pilot himself made it pretty clear that the aileron movement was halvated first after having taken the a/c to both 850 and 890 km/h, in which speed regime the overbalance first became apparent. I really don't see how this can be misinterpreted.
