This aircraft was re-engined with the 750 hp (560 kW) Wright R-1820-22 nine cylinder, single row, air-cooled radial engine. </p><p>The initial contract for 58 SBC-4s was signed on 5 January 1938. This was followed by two additional contracts, one for 31 Helldivers on 27 July 1938 and the third contract for 35 aircraft on 13 August 1938. Total aircraft contracted for was 124. The aircraft were powered by the 850 hp (630 kW) Wright R-1820-24 engine. </p><p>The first squadron to receive the SBC-4s was VS-2 in <a href="/wiki/USS_Lexington_(CV-2)" title="USS Lexington (CV-2)">USS <i>Lexington</i> (CV-2)</a> replacing the Vought SBU-1s. By 26 June 1939, VS-2 was fully equipped with 21 aircraft. This was the only aircraft carrier that flew the SBC-4 and they were replaced by <a href="/wiki/Douglas_SBD_Dauntless" title="Douglas SBD Dauntless">Douglas SBD-2 and -3 Dauntlesses</a> in 1941. </p><p>Because of the expanding aviation training program, the majority of SBC-4s, and other training aircraft, were assigned to Naval Reserve Air Bases (NRABs) to allow reserve Navy and Marine airmen, assigned to reserve scouting squadrons (VS and VMS), to maintain their proficiency. By June 1940, 11 NRABs had SBC-4s as follows: </p> <ul><li>NRAB Anacostia, District of Columbia: 3 SBC-4s assigned to VS-6R and VMS-3R,</li> <li>NRAB Boston, Massachusetts: 3 SBC-4s assigned to VS-1R, VS-2R and VMS-1R,</li> <li>NRAB Detroit, Michigan: 3 SBC-4s assigned to VS-8R and VMS-5R,</li> <li>NRAB Glenview, Illinois: .4 SBC-4s assigned to VS-9R,</li> <li>NRAB Kansas City, Kansas: 4 SBC-4s assigned to VS-12R and VMS-10R,</li> <li>NRAB Long Beach, California: 4 SBC-4s assigned to VS-13R, VS-14R and VMS-7R,</li> <li>NRAB Minneapolis, Minnesota: 3 SBC-4s assigned to VS-10R and VMS-6R,</li> <li>NRAB New York, New York: 4 SBC-4s assigned to VS-3R, VS-4R and VMS-2R,</li> <li>NRAB Oakland, California: 4 SBC-4s assigned to VS-15R and VMS-8R,</li> <li>NRAB Seattle, Washington: 4 SBC-4s assigned to VS-16R and VMS-9R,</li> <li>NRAB St. Louis, Missouri: 3 SBC-4s assigned to VS-11R<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li></ul> <p>As time passed, the Navy acquired newer, more modern aircraft and the SBC-3s were replaced by the Douglas SBD Dauntless. By 7 December 1941, the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps had 69 SBC-3s and 118 SBC-4s in the inventory based at NASs, NRABs and the <a href="/wiki/Naval_Aircraft_Factory" title="Naval Aircraft Factory">Naval Aircraft Factory</a> (NAF) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

At that time, the two squadrons had transitioned to the SBD-3 Dauntless and she became the last aircraft carrier to operate the SBC. </p><p>An additional 50 SBC-4s, originally ordered by the French, were built between February and May 1941 to replace those sent overseas. The major change was replacing the 135 US gal (510 L) fuselage fuel tank with a 126 US gal (480 L) self-sealing fuel tank. The last SBC-4 was delivered in May 1941. </p><p>By 1944, the SBC-3s were no longer needed and they were stricken from the inventory. The longest to survive were 12 aircraft at <a href="/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Jacksonville" title="Naval Air Station Jacksonville">NAS Jacksonville, Florida</a>, which were stricken on 31 October 1944. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="U.S._Marine_Corps">U.S. Marine Corps</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Curtiss_SBC_Helldiver&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section: U.S. Marine Corps"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:SBC-4_VMO-151_1941_NAN1-90.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/61/SBC-4_VMO-151_1941_NAN1-90.jpg/220px-SBC-4_VMO-151_1941_NAN1-90.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="120" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/61/SBC-4_VMO-151_1941_NAN1-90.jpg/330px-SBC-4_VMO-151_1941_NAN1-90.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/61/SBC-4_VMO-151_1941_NAN1-90.jpg/440px-SBC-4_VMO-151_1941_NAN1-90.jpg 2x" data-file-width="719" data-file-height="391" /></a><figcaption>Marine Observation Squadron 151 flew the SBC-4 at <a href="/wiki/American_Samoa" title="American Samoa">Samoa</a> until June 1943.</figcaption></figure> <p>The U.S. Marines received one SBC-3 in 1938 and which was assigned to Marine Fighter Squadron Two (VMF-2, redesignated VMF-211 on 1 July 1941) at NAS San Diego, California.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was sent to the Battle Fleet Pool in June 1939. </p><p>In January 1940, the Marine Corps had four SBC-4s.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Two were based at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS), Quantico, Virginia; one was assigned to VMF-1 (redesignated VMF-111 on 1 July 1941) and the second, the XSBC-4, was assigned to Marine Utility Squadron One (VMJ-1 redesignated VMJ-152 on 7 July 1941).

In early 1940, the French government placed an order with Curtiss-Wright for 90 SBC-4s. To aid the French, on 6 June 1940, the Roosevelt administration ordered the U.S. Navy to fly 50 SBC-4s of the Naval Reserve, currently in use by the Navy, to the Curtiss-Wright factory in Buffalo, New York, where the 50 planes would be refurbished to French standards. This included removing all U.S. markings on instruments and equipment, replacing the American machine guns with French 7.7 mm (0.303 in) Darne machine guns and repainting the aircraft in French camouflage colors. Once converted, the aircraft were to be delivered to <a href="/wiki/CFB_Shearwater" class="mw-redirect" title="CFB Shearwater">RCAF Station Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada</a>, where they would be loaded onto the <a href="/wiki/French_aircraft_carrier_B%C3%A9arn" title="French aircraft carrier Béarn">French aircraft carrier <i>Béarn</i></a>. </p><p>Several neutrality acts had been passed by the U.S. Congress and signed into law and the <a href="/wiki/Neutrality_Acts_of_1930s" class="mw-redirect" title="Neutrality Acts of 1930s">Neutrality Act of 1939</a> allowed for arms trade with belligerent nations (Great Britain and France) on a "<a href="/wiki/Cash_and_carry_(World_War_II)" title="Cash and carry (World War II)">cash-and-carry</a>" basis. "Cash and carry" allowed the sale of materiel to belligerents, as long as the recipients arranged for the transport using their own ships or planes and paid immediately in cash. Because of this provision, the U.S. could not fly military aircraft into Canada; they had to land in the U.S. and be towed across the Canada–US border. The 50 aircraft were to fly from Buffalo, New York to Houlton Airport, Maine via Burlington, Vermont and Augusta, Maine. <a href="/wiki/Houlton_International_Airport" title="Houlton International Airport">Houlton Airport, Maine</a>, was on the Canada–US border and local farmers used their tractors to tow the planes into New Brunswick, Canada, where the Canadians closed the Woodstock highway so that aircraft could use it as a runway and fly to RCAF Station Dartmouth.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The 50 SBC-4s were to fly to RCAF Station Dartmouth in groups of three. One of the first groups that left encountered rain and fog while flying between Buffalo and Albany, New York, and one of the aircraft crashed. The remaining 49 aircraft were successfully flown to Nova Scotia to be loaded onto <i>Béarn</i> and the light cruiser <a href="/wiki/French_cruiser_Jeanne_d%27Arc_(1930)" title="French cruiser Jeanne d'Arc (1930)"><i>Jeanne d'Arc</i></a>. Because of space limitations, only 44 of the SBC-4s could be carried on FR <i>Béarn</i>; she also had 25 Stinson Model HW-75s (also known as <a href="/wiki/Stinson_Voyager" title="Stinson Voyager">Stinson 105s</a>), 17 Curtiss H75-A1s (U.S. Army Air Corps <a href="/wiki/Curtiss_P-36_Hawk" title="Curtiss P-36 Hawk">P-36</a> and six <a href="/wiki/Brewster_F2A_Buffalo" title="Brewster F2A Buffalo">Brewster F2A-2 Buffalos</a> for the Belgian Air Force.
