    R-2800-34 vs. 34w

    Very interesting. Military power; even though 30W starts at about 2210 HP and 34W at 2300 HP, 30W seems to hold power much better than the 34W; if I'm interpreting the charts correctly, that is. Also, if the only difference between 34 and 34W is the ADI, then I suppose their non-WER charts...

    R-2800-34 vs. 34w

    There are conflicting reports of 34w's HP; some state it to be 2100 HP military, some 2400 HP. Does anyone have the official spec sheets for these engines? How much MIL. HP does a plain 34 produce? What's the main difference between 34W and 34?

    P-51D's ammo count

    All the websites that I've visited state it to be 1880 rounds, yet in the North American's P-51D manual it says it's 2080. NA-5865 P-51D Fighter Airplanes Another source: Page 5...

    Any proof F8F Bearcat used M3 Brownings?

    Were browning M2 and M3 guns interchangeable? Maybe that's the reason that sources don't mention the type.
