Second one is Fairchild Model 24 with a Ranger engine.
Same model was also built with Warner Scarab radial engine.

Incidentally, that XB-32 is the second prototype, 41-142. This photo was taken very early in the flight test program as the airplane still has three-bladed propellers and the prewar style rudder stripes.

Production B-32s also had the twin fins replaced by a large central vertical fin.
In fact the B-32 was a 'fail-safe' program for the B-29 Superfortress.
