The 1/32 Metallic Details Wright Cyclone R-1820 Late Engine (#MDR3256) is a highly detailed aftermarket upgrade designed for 1/32 scale aircraft models powered by the Wright R-1820 Cyclone radial engine. The set features high-resolution 3D-printed components that accurately reproduce the late-production version of this iconic radial engine, allowing modelers to replace simplified kit engines with a far more realistic and finely detailed representation.
The parts capture the distinctive single-row, nine-cylinder radial configuration of the Wright R-1820, including the cylinder arrangement and structural engine components typical of late-production variants. The precision of the 3D-printed parts ensures crisp detail and scale accuracy, making the engine ideal for open cowling displays or highly detailed builds.
The Wright R-1820 Cyclone was one of the most widely used radial aircraft engines of the World War II era. Developed by Curtiss-Wright, the air-cooled engine powered numerous American and Allied aircraft in roles ranging from fighters and dive bombers to heavy bombers and naval aircraft. Its reliability and durability made it a key powerplant for many important wartime aircraft.
Aircraft powered by the Wright R-1820 include:
• Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress
• Douglas SBD Dauntless
• Grumman TBF Avenger
• Grumman F4F Wildcat
Set Features
• Designed for 1/32 scale aircraft models
• Includes parts to build 1 Wright Cyclone R-1820 late-version engine
