About: Curtiss OX-5

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Curtiss OX-5 was an early V-8 American liquid-cooled aircraft engine built by Curtiss. It was the first American-designed aircraft engine to enter mass production, although it was considered obsolete when it did so in 1917. It nevertheless found widespread use on a number of aircraft, perhaps the most famous being the JN-4 "Jenny". Some 12,600 units were built through early 1919. The wide availability of the engine in the surplus market made it common until the 1930s, although it was considered unreliable for most of its service life.

dbo:abstract
  • Curtiss OX-5 ist die Bezeichnung für einen Motor des Herstellers Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company Incorporated, der vor und während des Ersten Weltkrieges in einer Reihe von Flugzeugen verwendet wurde. Das bekannteste unter ihnen war die in mehr als 6800 Exemplaren gebaute Curtiss JN-4. Der OX-5 ist ein wassergekühlter Achtzylindermotor in V-Anordnung. Es war der erste amerikanische Motor, der in Großserie für die Luftfahrt hergestellt wurde. Allerdings galt er zu diesem Zeitpunkt (1915–1919) bereits als veraltet. Nach dem Kriegsende kam bis in die 1930er-Jahre eine große Anzahl dieser Motoren – obwohl sie als nicht sonderlich zuverlässig galten – aufgrund ihres geringen Gebrauchtpreises als Austauschtriebwerke in verschiedenen Flugzeugtypen zum Einsatz.
