RAF s/n C4296 c/n 3751, long-range bomber, first flown August 10, 1918. Powered by four 250 hp Siddeley-Deasy Puma six-cylinder liquid-cooled in-line engines, mounted back-to-back in the middle wing, driving two tractor and two pushers propellers. Two pilots seated side-by-side, just ahead of the leading edge of the wings; a gunner in the nose. Another cockpit in rear fuselage with two guns mounted on a turntable on top of the fuselage, and a fourth gun mounted on gun ring in the floor. Featured four-wheeled landing gear, which wheels in tandem pairs to reduce drag.
