Neman ChAI-1

Shvetsov M-22 air-cooled 9 -cylinder radial engine 480 [hp](357.9 KW)

introduction : 1929 country : USSR importance : ***

applications : ChAI-1

normal rating : 480 [hp](357.9 KW) at 2000 [rpm] at 0 [m] above sea level

reduction : 0.75 , valvetrain : overhead valves, pushrod operated

General information : license built Gnome Rhone Jupiter engine.

Gnome-Rhône had a production facility in St. Petersburg. In 1928, Wladimir Klimov

purchased 200 Jupiter 9 engines, and a license to produce them. The Soviet version

of the Jupiter 9 was designated Shvetsov M-22.
