SB2C
The Curtiss SB2C Helldiver was a carrier-based dive bomber aircraft produced for the United States Navy during World War II. It replaced the Dogulas [[SBD Dauntless]].

Early versions suffered from reliability problems which were eventually ironed out by using a more powerful engine in the SB2C-3.

The aircraft was the last purpose-built dive bomber produced, its role replaced by air-to-ground rockets which have the same precision as a dive bomber without the need for demanding performance requirements.
