Gnome 9 Delta was a 9-cylinder rotary engine rated at approximately 100 hp, representing one of the more powerful French rotary designs of the early First World War period.

Introduced in 1914, it combined compact dimensions, low weight, and improved power output, making it suitable for a wide range of early military aircraft.

The engine became an important step in rotary engine development and also served as the basis for the German-built Oberursel U.I.

Typical applications included:
• Avro 500
• Caudron Type L
• Royal Aircraft Factory S.E.2

Engines of this type represent the transition from early pre-war rotary engines to the more mature and widely used powerplants of wartime aviation.
