Vickers Mk1 vs Vijayanta Engine Power Discrepancy

I noticed that the Vickers Mk.1 has an engine power of 709 hp, while the Vijayanta only has 608 hp ingame.

From what I understand, the Vijayanta is essentially a licensed production version of the Vickers Mk.1, so they should be nearly identical in performance. Because of that, this difference in horsepower doesn’t really make sense.

Is there a specific historical reason for this difference, like a different engine variant or detuning? Or is this something that was done for balancing?

Also, just to ask directly, was this difference intentional, or was the Vijayanta possibly overlooked and left with outdated or incorrect stats?

Anything with a Leyland L60 derivative engine is incorrect

Bug reports are accepted on this however they will likely never be fixed.

The Leyland L60 has a number of subvariants with a range of power outputs

The Vijayanta was licensed with only the derated L60 Mk4B with 540 BHP
