Rptd 29/Nov/2017 French F6F-5 wrong engine in X-ray

Ps4 version 1.73.1.73

Currently the French F6F-5 has the wrong engine in the X-ray view, it shows as a Wright R2600 but it should be a Pratt And Whitney R2800 as can be seen correctly in the X-ray for the US F6F-5

Here's two sources backing up the F6F-5 having the R2800 http://www.flyingheritage.com/Explore/The-Collection/United-States/Grumman-F6F-5-Hellcat.aspxhttp://www.navalaviationmuseum.org/attractions/aircraft-exhibits/item/?item=f6f-5_hellcat

Thanks for that.

 

I will investigate and get back to you.  It is possible the Free French got a different engine.  I will ask.

 

Cheers

This also affects the F6F-5N, I can't find any information on the French F6F's being different, it would be a downgrade in engine but in the viewer the HP is the same between them so I think it may simply be a naming bug, the R2600 8 was 1700HP
