Earlier versions produced 24 hp (18 kW) at 4200 rpm with a slide-type carburetor and reduction drive. The Compact Radial Engines version is rated at 20 hp (15 kW) at 4200 rpm. Time between overhaul is rated as 300 hours. [1] [2] [4] The SC 430 shares the same bore and stroke as the larger four cylinder König SD 570 radial engine. [2] [4]
With Pratt & Whitney starting development of their own 2,800 in 3 (46 L) displacement 18-cylinder, twin-row radial as the R-2800 Double Wasp in 1937, Wright's first R-3350 prototype engines with a 3,350 in 3 (54.9 L) displacement were run in May of the same year. Development was slow, due to the complexity, and the R-2600 receiving development ...
Earlier versions produced 28 hp (21 kW) at 4200 rpm with a slide-type carburetor and reduction drive. The Compact Radial Engines version is rated at 24 hp (18 kW) at 4200 rpm. Time between overhaul is rated as 300 hours. [1] [2] [4] The SD 570 shares the same bore and stroke as the smaller three-cylinder König SC 430 radial engine. [2] [4]

The R-2000 was an enlarged version of the Pratt & Whitney R-1830 Twin Wasp, with focus on reducing the manufacturing costs and fuel requirements.The bore was increased to 5.75 in (146 mm), while it still retained the 5.5 in (140 mm) stroke.
The Continental R-670 (factory designation W670) was a seven-cylinder four-stroke radial aircraft engine produced by Continental displacing 668 cubic inches (11 litres) and a dry weight of 465 lb (211 kg). Horsepower varied from 210 to 240 at 2,200 rpm. The engine was the successor to Continental's first radial engine, the 170 hp Continental A ...
For example: the -18W was a "C" series engine, built from 1945, whereas the -21 was a "B" series engine, built from 1943. Until 1940 the armed forces adhered strictly to the convention that engines built for the Army Air Forces used engine model numbers with odd numeric suffixes (e.g.: -5), while those built for the US Navy used even (e.g.: -8).
The Pratt & Whitney Wasp was the civilian name of a family of air-cooled radial piston engines developed in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. [ 1 ] The Pratt & Whitney Aircraft Company (P&W) was founded in 1925 by Frederick B. Rentschler , who had previously been the President of Wright Aeronautical .
