       After their production of water-cooled radial engines during WW1, Salmson decided to adopt air-cooling to reduce weight and increase specific power. 
 Between the two world wars, they produced a vast variety of radial engines of 5, 7 or 9 cylinders that met great success and were fitted on many aicrafts.
 
 The Salmson radial air-cooled engines featured the Canton-Unné internal arrangment that dispensed with a master rod in favour of a cage of epicyclic gears driving the crankpin.
