The Royal Air Factory SE.5 is a British biplane fighter with a classic WW1 tail. It was created as a British response to the appearance of large Fokker and Albatros fighters on the Western Front in 1916. The flight of the prototype took place in November 1916, and the machine was delivered to line units in March 1917. The drive was a Hispano-Suiza engine with a capacity of 200 hp, which powered the first 60 production aircraft, other examples used a Waseley W4A Viper engine of the same capacity. The SE.5 was a successful fighter with excellent performance, good armament, easy handling and good resistance to enemy fire.
