Mega Diesel Engine made in Germany. MTU (Engine and Turbine Union Friedrichshafen) is a brand of Rolls-Royce Power Systems. Their propulsion systems and large diesel engines, for example, neatly heat ships, heavy and military vehicles or railways. Not infrequently bring such drives namely achievements of up to 12,000 hp. The mega diesel engines are manufactured in the idyllic Friedrichshafen on Lake Constance, but the engines "Made in Germany" have long been used worldwide.

TBH, as a kid, the most impressive German things I ever saw in person, were the 1972-1973 Porsche 917/30 CAN-AM cars being driven at Riverside Raceway. Roger Penske was the crew chief way back then, and he is still at it in racing. These cars were so fast/powerful, they were outlawed, the following season. Piloted by Americans, Mark Donohue and George Follmer.
