Design and development
The R-1300 is basically a single row Wright R-2600. The engine was mass-produced but not widely used. Engineering began in 1942 but the first flight of an R-1300 did not take place until 1949. The engine was produced under license by Kaiser-Frazer and later by AVCO Lycoming.[2]
The engine was used in combat — the R-1300-1A and -1B in the A model North American T-28 Trojan and the R-1300-3, -3A, -3C and -3D in the Sikorsky H-19 Chickasaw. The R-1300-1B was used to power the Ayres Thrush. The R-1300-4 and -4A were used in the N class blimp; 50 of these variants were produced by AVCO.[2]
Early-production engines had vibration problems, an improved lateral dampener in the crank brought about most of the model changes.[2]
Variants
- R-1300-1A
- R-1300-2
- A direct drive version of the R-1300-1. It had a 0.5625:1 reduction drive. Both used the PD9F1 carburetor.[2]
- R-1300-2A
- R-1300-3
- Derated to 690.3 hp (515 kW), uses forced-air cooling fan and uses a PD9G1 carburetor.[2]
- R-1300-4
- Similar to the R-1300-1, uses some different accessory components.[2]
- R-1300-CB7A1
- With reduction gear for use on fixed wing aircraft.
Applications
- N class blimp
- North American T-28 Trojan
- Rockwell Thrush Commander
- Sikorsky H-19
- Westland Whirlwind
