Pratt & Whitney’s R-2800, also called the Double Wasp ?
It was exclusively a powerplant for fighters and medium bombers during the war, being used in the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, Grumman F6F Hellcat, Vought F4U Corsair, Northrop P-61 Black Widow and also in the Martin B-26 Marauder and Douglas A-26 Invader twin-engine medium bombers. Post-war its reliability commended its use for long-range patrol planes and for the Douglas DC-6, Martin 404 and Convair transports. This last application is noteworthy, since these were twin-engine craft of size, passenger capacity, and high wing loading comparable with the DC-4 and the first Lockheed Constellations and DC-3. http://www.aviation-history.com/engines/pr-2800.htm

Quote:
It is an R2800 double wasp but it was only used in one aircraft type. Which type is the answer being sought.
