The WACO D was an ambitious multipurpose military biplane designed to fulfill at least twelve different combat roles, from fighter to bomber to reconnaissance aircraft. First flown in the early 1930s, it was a single-bay biplane configuration powered by Wright radial engines ranging from 250 to 450 horsepower. The aircraft measured as a typical military biplane of its era, with variants designated CHD, JHD, WHD, and S3HD based on their engine configurations. Manufactured by the Waco Aircraft Company in Troy, Ohio, the D series represented the company's determined but ultimately unsuccessful attempt to break into military contracts. AviatorDB tracks 678 Waco aircraft currently registered in the FAA database. The ICAO type designator for this aircraft model is WACD.
