What is Argus As 014?
[[Image:Selection of pulsejets.jpg|thumb|right|Paul Schmidt pulsejet SR500 (top)]] The '''Argus As 014''' was a [[pulse jet engine]] used on the German [[V-1]] flying bomber of [[World War II]]. This was meant to be a simple model that would have been easy to make a lot of for not very much money. The engine was made from a sheet of steel that was rolled into a tube. A shutter was placed at one of the ends of the tube, along with a fuel valve and an igniter (something that lights things on fire). It was thought that this could become a good power source for some last ditch German fighters during the last few days of [[World War II]]. {{Transport-stub}} [[Category:Pulsejet engines]]
