As a large scale manufacturer, Mitsubishi had a wealth of experience building engines, both gasoline and diesel, in V and straight engine block configurations during the war. One of their many examples was the air-cooled A6120VDe air-cooled inline 6-cylinder 14.4 L diesel and the SA12200VD air-cooled V-12 diesel (21.7 litres).
[1] In classical mechanics, the kinetic energy of a non-rotating object of mass m traveling at a speed v is . [2] The kinetic energy of an object is equal to the work, or force in the direction of motion times its displacement , needed to accelerate the mass from rest to its stated velocity.
The M-105 was the first Klimov V-12 engine design to use reverse-flow cylinder heads, forcing the induction system to be placed on the outside of the cylinder banks, with the exhaust system also exiting from the outboard side, with twin sets of "siamesed" exhaust ports adjacent to each other. About 129,000 M-105 and its variants were built.
Each bank of a V12 engine essentially functions as a straight-six engine, which by itself has perfect primary and secondary engine balance.A four-stroke V12 engine has even firing order at V-angles of 60, 120, or 180 degrees [1] [unreliable source] Many V12 engines use a V-angle of 60 degrees between the two banks of cylinders.

In 1932 Lincoln offered for the first time a 447.9 cubic inch (7.3 L) L-head V-12 with a seven-main bearing crankshaft and 150 hp. The K-Series was previously available only with a developed version (bored out to 384 cubic inches (6.3 L) in 1928 and uprated to 125 hp for 1932) of the 60° V-8 which first saw duty in the 1920 Lincoln L-Series.
Honda has made a number of naturally-aspirated V12 engines designed for Formula One motor racing; starting with the 1.5-litre RA271E engine in 1964, [10] [11] and ending with the 3.0-litre RA273E in 1968.
On the top model, the Tramontana XTR, it produces 653 kW (888 PS; 881 hp) and 1,100 N·m (809 lb·ft). The Tramontana C, S and R also feature this V12 in a lower output trim, with outputs ranging from 550–720 hp (410–537 kW). [7] Applications: M285: 2002–2012 Maybach 57 and 62; M285 AMG: 2005 Tramontana; 2009 Tramontana R; 2013 Tramontana XTR
The Red Army adopted the V-2 engine in the same year in three modifications: the V-2 (500 hp (370 kW)), the V-2K (600 hp (450 kW)) for the KV line of tanks and the V-2V (375 hp (280 kW)). [ 1 ] Near the end of the 20th century, the V-2 was fitted with more modern modifications by the chief designer of the head design bureau for the Chelyabinsk ...
