Information
has glosseng: The Rolls-Royce Meteor (also sometimes known as the Rover Meteor) was a British tank engine of the Second World War. It was developed from the Rolls-Royce Merlin aero-engine by W. A. Robotham and his chassis design and development division at Belper (as they were not involved in aero-engine work). He originally considered adapting the Kestrel, but while having more power than the existing "Liberty" or Meadows engines, it did not provide the desirable 20 bhp per ton required. Robotham was made Chief Engineer of Tank Development, and the Tank Division at Belper was involved with the overall design of four versions of the Cromwell tank, using a standard set of components.
