Wright R2600 Cyclone engine

he Wright R-2600 Cyclone 14 (also known as the "Twin Cyclone") is an American-designed radial aircraft engine, widely used during World War II to power bombers, torpedo bombers, and commercial airliners. Produced by Wright Aeronautical (a division of Curtiss-Wright), this 14-cylinder, two-row, air-cooled engine was developed in the late 1930s as a more powerful successor to the single-row R-1820 Cyclone 9. 

• Engine Type: 14-cylinder, two-row, air-cooled radial engine.
• Displacement: 2,604 cubic inches (42.7 liters).
• Power Output: Ranged from 1,500 hp initially to over 1,800 hp in later variants.
• Weight: Approximately 1,980 lbs (898 kg).
• Dimensions: Roughly 54.25 inches in diameter and 64.84 inches in length.
• Design Features: Included a two-speed centrifugal supercharger, sodium-cooled exhaust valves, and a 16:9 reduction gear ratio. 
   

Notable Applications
The R-2600 was a workhorse for the U.S. military, with over 50,000 units produced, powering several iconic aircraft: North American B-25 Mitchell (bomber).

• Grumman TBF/TBM Avenger (torpedo bomber).
• Curtiss SB2C Helldiver (dive bomber).
• Douglas A-20 Havoc (bomber).
• Martin PBM Mariner (flying boat).
• Boeing Model 314 Clipper (civilian flying boat). 

• Unparalleled realism: the kit includes one complete engin with incredibly sharp cylinder ribbing, detailed ignition wiring and perfectly scaled bolt heads.

• Seamless integration.

• Unlike traditional cast resin, our 3D design eliminates complex castings and preserves even the smallest microscopic details of the cylinder heads.
