M46 is classified as of Trumpler type II,2,r.
These stars, however, need more than a billion years for their evolution until they eject their envelope to form the planetary, which is much longer than the age of M46 (more massive stars "go supernova").

M46 and M47 in the constellation Puppis are neglected by northern observers because they are so low in the horizon.
M46 shows its age of 300 million years with some yellow suns at a distant 5400 light years, while younger M47 at 80 million years old still has a few blue-white brilliant stars at 1600 light years.
Best of all, crowning M46 is the tiny planetary nebula NGC 2438, which is just superimposed, and not part of M46.

constellation Puppis, M46 is a familiar object to telescopic stargazers and also seems to contain a contradiction to its youthful status.
The striking red patch of glowing gas above center in this lovely photograph is the planetary nebula NGC 2438 - a brief, final phase in the life of a solar-type star a few billion years old whose central reservoir of hydrogen fuel has been exhausted.
NGC 2438 is estimated to be only 3,000 light-years distant and moves at a different speed than M46 cluster members.

 m46 or m47 - Turbobricks Forums
According to a Volvo Technician I know, the M47 is a re-work of the M46 and when you "shift" to 5th gear, you are actually staying physically in 4th gear but moving the stick engages the O/D (instead of hitting the button).
The M46 is much stronger than the M47, the M47 had a weak casing and is known for failure especially under high horse applications.
I found that using a Quaife straight cut gearset in an M46 with the P-type overdrive (this is the flavor of M-46 with the mainshaft that won't break at the input to the OD in a stoplight battle) was good for up to about 250 horses.

 Medium Tank M46 Patton
The M46 was basically a medium tank M26 with the new and more powerful Continental V-12 engine and cross-drive transmission, which allowed the tank to pivot steer.
The M46 used the 90mm gun M3A1 with bore evacuator and single-baffle muzzle brake, as also seen on the M26A1 Pershing.
The major differentiation point between the M46 and M26 is the placement of the exhausts: M46 had a rearward-facing muffler on each rear fender, while Pershing had the exhaust vented through a hole in the hull rear plate.

M46 is a rich open star cluster in the constellation Puppis.
M46 is probably around 300 million years old.
NGC2438 is almost certainly not physically associated with M46 due to is probable evolutionary history, its significantly diffferent velocity, and a distance estimate only a little more than half the distance to M46.

The small, colorful patch of glowing gas in M46 is actually the planetary nebula NGC 2438 - the final phase in the life of a sun-like star billions of years old.
NGC 2438 is estimated to be only 3,000 light-years distant and likely represents a foreground object, only by chance appearing along our line of sight to youthful M46.

 M46 Patton
The 1948 M46 Patton, with a more powerful engine, was a variant of the original M26.
By 1950 the standard tank for the US Army was the M46 Patton, but limited production meant that some armor units had either the obsolescent M4E8 Sherman or the limited standard M26 Pershing.
The M46 got a new turret, 90mm gun, and fire control system to become the second Patton tank, the M47.

M46 is an excellent open cluster, particularly for telescopes under 12".
The combination of M46 and NGC 2438 could have been of great value to our understanding of planetary nebulae.
Had the NGC 2438 planetary nebula proven to be within the M46 cluster, we could have inferred the distance to the nebula from that of the cluster.
