Unlike liquid cooling, air cooling is characterized in that its complete cooling system is integrated in the engine. Special cooling media are not required.For military applications, the main requirement is:The military mission envisaged must be carried through without any potential breakdown involved. This implies a low degree of vulnerability and a high degree of survivability. With the air-cooling system, this can be realized more reliably, because it is less sensitive to shell fire and to the influence or impact of splinters; repairability is easier and logistics are not so much a problem.Deutz, as a manufacturer of air-cooled diesel engines in the power range of 3-386 kW, offers not only standard production engines for military applications, but also meets a quite specific, military requirement with its special multifuel combustion system.
