Talk:Pratt & Whitney R-4360
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Move
Why? It seems to me that it violates the Wikipedia standard of common names; "Wasp Major" is a lot better known than "R-4360". —Morven 06:07, Oct 11, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Hardly competitive
The article claims that the P/W of the 4360 was matched by few engines. I beg to differ. All of the Hypers outperformed it, as did practically every other US engine. More to the point the Sabre easily outperformed it, producing 3,500hp from under 2,500 lbs, and even the poor German engines running on 87 didn't do too badly, the Jumo 222 for instance.
The 4360 was big. That's all it was.
