Great Britain - Aircraft for Research 1914-16

Post by geminif4ucorsair »

There are several new aircraft designs that can be research by Great Britain, and I would recommend each of the below added, with appropriate year indicated:

1914 -

* Sopwith Baby - Fighter; twin-float fighter

* Avro Type 511 Arrowscout - Patrol; land-based recon


1915 -

* R. A. F. B.E.2c - Patrol; land-based recon [R.A.F. = Royal Aircraft Factory]

* Pemberton-Billings P.B. 9 - Patrol; land-based recon - recommend for all "Commonwealth" countries

* R. A. F. 4/4A - Patrol; land-based fighter-recon

* Bristol Scout C/D - Fighter; land-based fighter-recon - recommend for all "Commonwealth" countries

* Sopwith Two-Seat Scout - Fighter; land-based fighter-recon

* Martinsyde S.1 - Fighter; land-based fighter-recon

* Armstrong Whitworth F.K. 1 - Patrol; recon type - recommend "Worldwide" listing

* Airco D.H. 1/1A - Fighter; fighter-recon type

* Short Admiralty Type 184 - Patrol; torpedo-bomber floatplane

*


1916 -

* Airco D.H. 2 - Fighter; fighter-recon land-based type

* R. A. F. B.E. 2C/E - Tactical Bomber - introduction of B.E. 2 types to light bombing duties

* R. A. F. B.E. 8 - Tactical Bomber - light bomber-recon type

* Short Bomber - Tactical Bomber - land-based light bomber type - recommend "Commonwealth" production option

* Armstrong Whitworth F.K. 2 - Tactical Bomber - land based light bomber type

* Martinsyde G.100/102 - Fighter; land-based fighter-escort type

* Sopwith 1 1/2 (1.5) Strutter - Fighter; land-based fighter-bomber type [originally ordered by Admiralty]

* Vickers F.B. 9 - Fighter; land-based fighter type - recommend "Commonwealth" production option

* Sopwith Pup - Fighter; land-based fighter type

* R. A. F. B.E. 12/12B - Recon; land-based recon [600 built under RAF contracts]

* Sopwith Triplane (Clerget) - Fighter; land-based fighter-recon type - recommend "Worldwide" production option

* Hadley Page 0/100 - Bomber; land-based medium bomber type (twin-engine)

* Airco D.H. 3/3A - Bomber; land based medium bomber type (twin-engine)

------------

For those concerned the effort maybe limited to Great Britain, fear not, this will be followed by similar recommendations for France, Russia, German and Japan, in hopes of catching upcoming SRGW Updates.
