The drive was provided by a single Hispano-Suiza 8Be V-engine with 235 HP. The flight of the prototype took place on March 4, 1917, and serial production began in May that year, which was completed only in 1919 with the production of over 8,400 copies of this very successful aircraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe SPAD S.XIII was created as a far-reaching development of another fighter plane from this manufacturer - the SPAD S.VII model. The new fighter was primarily characterized by very good piloting qualities and its great ease. This feature resulted from the use of a V-engine - operating in the air much smoother and more stable than the then popular rotary engines. It was also characterized by a much more solid construction than many Allied aircraft of that time - for example, Nieuport fighters. Due to their numerous advantages, SPAD S.XIII planes quickly became the backbone of French aviation, and were also used by the air forces of such countries as: Great Britain, USA, Italy and Czechoslovakia. The greatest aces of the French aviation also flew on this type of machines, with the famous Rene Fonck at the helm, who is still considered the most effective Entente fighter pilot today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51527934640395,"sku":"14412","price":10.76,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/1809\/4091\/files\/valom-14412-spad-s_xiii-double-set.jpg?v=1749146069"},{"product_id":"valom-14427-1-144-breguet-14-a2-double-set","title":"Breguet 14 A2 [double set]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Breguet 14 (or Breguet XIV or Bre.14) was a French reconnaissance aircraft and light bomber from World War I and the interwar period. The machine was built in a biplane system, it had a mixed structure and a classic - fixed undercarriage. The prototype flight took place in 1916, and serial production started in 1917. Approximately 8,000 aircraft of this type of all versions were created during it. The drive - in the B2 version - was provided by a single engine Renault 12Fe with a power of 300 hp. The deck armament consisted of three 7.7 mm machine guns. The machine could carry a load of bombs weighing up to 300 kilograms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Breguet 14 was developed by Louis Breguet in response to the requirements set by the French military aviation for a new light bomber plane. The machine marked the return of this great aviation constructor to the plane with a towing propeller, as well as the large-scale use of duralumin, which was a novelty among aviation constructions of that time. The machine also had good flight range and performance. It is widely recognized as one of the best light bombers of the First World War. In the course of serial production of this successful aircraft, many of its development versions were created, including: Bre.14 A2 (reconnaissance version), Bre.14 B2 (bomb version) or Bre.14S (sanitary version). Airplanes of this type were used, inter alia, in the military aviation of Belgium, Spain and Poland. The last copies of this aircraft were withdrawn from the Polish airline service by 1932.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51527938408715,"sku":"14427","price":12.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/1809\/4091\/files\/valom-14427-breguet-14-a2-double-set.jpg?v=1749146160"},{"product_id":"valom-14430-1-144-salmson-2-a-2-double-set","title":"Salmson 2 A.2 [double set]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Salmson 2 was a French reconnaissance aircraft and light bomber from World War I and the interwar period.
