VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image presents an advertisement for the Bristol Mercury IV.S.2 radial engine, boasting its compact size and fully supercharged capabilities designed for high-speed aircraft with top speeds exceeding 320 km/h (200 mph). Emphasizing efficiency, it mentions features like aircrew reduction gear and low-drag flying cowling—innovations aimed at improving aerodynamics and performance. A graph below demonstrates horsepower outputs at different altitudes and rotational speeds, underscoring this engine's capability in maintaining power even in thin air—an essential requirement for combat aircraft during World War II when dogfights often took place at higher elevations.
