Country: | I believe Comets are primarily made of ice, something like 70%. I do not know about Meteors though.
I may have a picture of the Meteor engine, I will search for it. C.C the Meteor engine was a great tank engine, and it powered all the British late war tanks that could match up to the Pz.Kpfw VI Ausf E 'Tiger'. Which is a great feat.
