About the North American T-28 Trojan
The North American T-28 Trojan is the bigger, more powerful post-war radial trainer — a tricycle-gear warbird powered by the Wright R-1300 (T-28A) or the larger R-1820 (T-28B/C and Fennec), offering notably more performance and a roomier two-seat cockpit than the T-6. Popular for warbird flying and formation, it combines genuine radial-warbird character with more modern (nosewheel) handling.
