What is the engine based on?

I've got GRAVE doubts about this aircraft as a carrier plane in-period.
Quoted
taking an engine that was one of the best of the period and airily adding 400 rpm while tweaking the cylinder and stroke size is amusing, but definitely a leap of logic and faith.

Definitely doable and a fairly logical implementation of experience gained with racing engines like with the Merlin and Griffon.

Was there a production engine developed from the AS.6?

Why a cetral mediteranean power needs such a large carrier fleet is beyond me but everybody can build what he wants.
Quoted
But that´s probably just me and I´m sure you can provide data that historically all was there in Italy
Quoted
Hopefully this statement will not make you angry, Gavin, but it´s no surprise most on this board think Italian ship and plane designs are well beyond era and show technics and resemble doctrines well in advance of anything else in WesWorld

Its rather difficult to deploy an air force to the middle of nowhere, so naval forces are the most important contribution. Aircraft carriers allow strikes to be made further inland in support of land operations by allied forces. Battleships/cruisers etc. to deny the seas to opposing forces.

Its not anger. Its more annoyance. I actually think things through to get results that are logical and possible. Others conjure the most bizarre things from thin air when they don't work and probably wouldn't work.
Quoted
Its now at above historical levels.

Ship designs, not quite sure what's advanced there. Some of the submarines are fairly fast.

On the other hand Italy is pretty much the only major power still using bolt action rifles, no T-34 tanks or anything close to that, no ampibious capability, no Antarctic research stations, no rockets, no heavy bombers....
