The
Curtiss SBC
Helldiver
was a two-place scout bomber built by the Curtiss-Wright Corporation. It was the last military biplane procured by the United States Navy.
The
SBC-3
the initial production model was powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-1535 Twin Wasp Junior. The SBC-3 began operational service in 1938. A total of 83 SBC-3s were built.
The Navy took deliveries of the new aircraft in mid-1937 with the first batch of carrier-based aircraft going to
Yorktown
, but time and technology caught up to the advanced biplane. It was relegated to hack duties and service as an advanced trainer for training units in Florida. The last aircraft was stricken from the Navy roster in October 1944.
The SBC Helldiver was not destined to have a long U.S. service life, but its impact was felt as the type made a lasting contribution by serving as the key platform in developing dive bombing tactics and honing aircrew skills crucial to winning the war in the Pacific.
