Talk:Curtiss V-2

R-1454?
As the R-1454 is a 9 cylinder 450hp air cooled radial engine - there is some serious confusion going on here.NiD.29 (talk) 19:31, 7 July 2012 (UTC)


 * The number pre-dates the designation system (1926) so might well be correct. More confusing there is a 'Curtiss V-2-3' category on Commons with one image which appears to show a V-8?! Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by)    23:24, 26 December 2012 (UTC)


 * That would be because the V-2 is a V-8 (actually a family of V-8s) and the R-1454 is a radial... and I have found a drawing showing the R-1454 online. While the R-1454 may predate the official 1926 designation system, it only shows in that the displacement hasn't been rounded off.NiD.29 (talk) 16:14, 10 April 2014 (UTC)


 * The only refs I can find - V-2 is a V-8!!--Petebutt (talk) 19:06, 27 July 2017 (UTC)


 * R-1454 - 9-cylinder radial 5 5/8 x 6 1/2. 2001:56A:F414:D300:A0DF:7E19:9A8B:57E8 (talk) 23:38, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
