Name corresponding to "Gosudarstvenniy Aviatsionniy Zavod" or State Aircraft Factory. Scattered throughout the Soviet Union and over the years, changing number and place.

-The first, or GAZ-1 was in Moscow, and for example, there the M-11 engine was made between 1943-44. Together with aircraft and aeronautical material.

-Lately 300 factory is the one in Moscow. Possibly with some other, like Energomash, etc. Leaving the GAZ name for the past.

From Appendix 7: In one of the Russian GAZ factories and in 1918 the French Salmson engine was made under license. This was a water-cooled, 9-cylinder radial.

-It has a long extension for the propeller, and, although being sectioned for pedagogy, it does not seem to have a gearbox in that place.

-We are looking for cross-information or traceability for what the M-designation means, since in the main text this engine does not appear.
