Redesigned the Wright Cyclone used in the B-29.

B-29 Superfortress - Chrysler and Dodge contributions



They helped build the M3, Sherman and Pershing, volunteering to give up the profits on those.

The Saturn 5 and some newer main battle tank called the Abrams or something.

A brief history of Chrysler military work

I bet there are a lot of interesting stories from all the auto companies at the time.
