The Curtiss SBC Helldiver was a two-seat scout bomber and dive-bomber built by the Curtiss-Wright Corporation. It was the last combat military biplane procured by the United States Navy. The 76th SBC-3 was re-engined with a 950 hp. (710 kW) Wright R-1820-22 nine-cylinder, single-row, air-cooled radial engine driving a three-blade Hamilton Standard propeller and redesignated SBC-4 (Curtiss Model 77B). The aircraft armament changed to one 0.5 in (12.70 mm) fixed machine gun in the right side of the fuselage, forward of the pilot, while keeping the 0.3 in (7.62 mm) flexible machine gun in the rear cockpit. With the more powerful engine, this aircraft could carry a 1,000 lb. (450 kg) bomb on the bomb displacement swing located on the centerline of the fuselage. The SBC-4 Helldiver was produced in 1935-1943. The aircraft was operated from 1935 to 1943.
