Re: Bf 109 identity
Olivier,
I checked couple microfilms to find out which engines were actually produced. The designations for the DB 605AM and ASM used for the G-14 (and apparently for the G-6 too) appear to be according to specification :
9-605-2213 for the AM
9-605-2223 for the ASM
Then I have practically unreadable power curve sheet which (might) give following designations:
9-605-2218 for the AM
9-605-2230 for the ASM
Do you know the designation(s) for the DB605AS? (there probably is several versions as the original plan was to build only 200 with lower CR according to Valtonen).
Of above listed engines at least the 2213 should be with higher compression ratio, but I'll try to find more documents on this.
