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...
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?
Very interesting. That's not something you see very often.
I looked around a bit and found this:
TO 60JE-14 Modification of armament installation - P-51D
Yes, indeed they reduced it for reliability purposes.
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
