"Can I start it?" Asked Shrek.

"Of course!" Fritz came forward, turned the starting lever over, turned on the switch, and then kicked hard.

Xierik can ride, but xierik can't start. In future generations, it's all electrically started. This way of stepping on feet is skilled.

Light blue smoke came out of the exhaust pipes on both sides and spewed back with the sound of the buzzing engine.

Shrek twisted the accelerator twice, and the engine roared. Then, holding the clutch on the left, Shrek stepped on the gear lever.

Slowly release the clutch, turn the accelerator with your right hand, and the R-75 motorcycle starts rumbling!

Colonel Shrek is a versatile person. No one has taught Shrek how to ride a motorcycle, especially this three wheeled motorcycle with a sidecar, and Shrek can actually start!

It's very popular, isn't it? In later generations, as an absolute World War II military fan, Shrek once rode the Yangtze River 750. Although the prototype is not R75, but R71, there are still many similarities after all.

Now, on this motorcycle, Chirac has fully integrated into this era. Germany's military production capacity is absolutely strong enough. The only factor limiting them is resources!

Now, Chirac has passed through and become Hitler's most trusted man. Of course, he wants to change all this!

Now, many revelations have changed. This kind of motorcycle should have been produced in 40 years, but now it has been several years ahead of schedule!

Step on the brake and hold the front brake. A huge force came and the BMW R75 stopped quickly.

The front wheels of this car are mechanical brakes and the rear wheels are hydraulic assisted brakes, which is quite easy!

Looking at hilrick's turn back, everyone in BMW knows that there is absolutely no problem with the stereotyped production of this kind of motorcycle! In this way, BMW will also usher in the peak of development!

"Good performance." Hilrick got out of the car and said, "when the test is completed and handed over to the military for acceptance, the military can order 1000 first."

One thousand, just an initial number. In the whole world War II, there were 16000 motorcycles of this model alone, and motorcycles of other models and other companies were active in the front line of World War II.

"Colonel Shrek, we have another idea about this kind of motorcycle." Fritz said: "take this motorcycle as the prototype and change the rear into a crawler chassis to have better performance."

Half track structure! The front is the wheel and the back is the track. This structure was once very popular in the German army!

Xierik certainly knows that this structure is not very advanced. Future generations have eliminated this structure, which is an example, but now, with only a small amount of improvement, it can have better performance. Of course, it can also be tried.

"We agree in principle, but this is not the model proposed by the military, so we don't have to think about the military's R & D expenses." Shrek made it clear.

"OK, we BMW, bear the R & D expenses." Said Franz Joseph Papp, head of BMW.

As long as we get a steady stream of orders from the army, BMW can have good financial revenue and expenditure, and it is quite easy to develop new models by itself.

After that, Chirac's words surprised BMW.

"As a professional aircraft engine manufacturer, BMW must continue the previous tradition and design better and more powerful aircraft engines." "Empire needs BMW's aeroengine," said shirek

aircraft engine! This has always been the main business of BMW!

BMW has never given up its aeroengine in recent years! They have been developing, but unfortunately, they can only be pre researched or sold abroad, such as the Soviet Union, island countries and so on, while there are almost no orders in Germany.

Now, Germany is finally going to vigorously develop its military! It is conceivable that in the future, there will be a large number of orders rolling in!

"We will work hard." Papp said.

"Also, in a few days, the company will send some people to go out with me." Said Shrek.

"Where are you going?" PAP was stunned.

"When we go to Britain, we will negotiate with Luoluo company. If the price is appropriate, we will buy their Merlin engine. Mercedes Benz will send someone and we will go together." Said Shrek.

Merlin engine!

World War II in history is also an era of continuous eruption of various technologies!

When it comes to aeroengines, the United States stood aside, Germany and Britain were quite advanced in the early stage.

Db600 series liquid cooled engine can be described as a classic of Mercedes Benz. 601 is installed on various 109 models as the Royal engine of 109, and bf110 also uses this engine.

The most advanced engine is direct fuel injection, powerful power, compact structure and zenith star technology, which is in the leading position in Europe.

Unfortunately, due to the limitations of resources and materials, the secondary supercharger of German engine could not be made. In the late World War II, there was a big gap in high-altitude performance.

At the same time, BMW 801 series air-cooled engine is also quite advanced. In particular, as the Royal engine of 190, BMW 801 has strong power. It also adopts direct injection technology and supercharger similar to 601.

Moreover, the number of cylinders is large, the displacement is large, and the burst power of 801 is quite strong. The powerful engine and powerful firepower have made the butcher's bird fw190.

The dispute between liquid cooling and air cooling during World War II also existed in Germany, but Germany produced two engines at the same time.

In Britain, there is also an advanced engine, which is the power of fire, Merlin engine! The performance of this engine was advanced. Even later, the United States introduced the patented production of this engine. At the beginning of World War II, the American aeroengine was not advanced and had many technical problems.

In this era, Luoluo company is also an old hand in Aeroengine development. When they realized that the 21 liter kestrel engine could not meet the requirements of future aircraft development, they decided to raise funds to develop a 27 liter engine, named Merlin engine.

This is an 820kw 12 cylinder engine, which was installed and tested for the first time in October 33.

The original Merlin was not reliable and suffered from cylinder cracking, coolant leakage, cam wear and bearing failure. After careful time modification, it was improved one by one. With excellent performance, this engine began to be widely used by Royal Air Force aircraft.
