ericg Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Let’s hope it’s not a Nieuport 17 from them. The CSM one is excellent. It would be nice to know that other manufacturers are allowed a piece of the WW1 pie without the biggest kid in the playground throwing their weight around.

Pup7309 Posted September 6, 2019 Author Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) Thought it might be another ships Camel because some had 2 Vickers or two Lewis mg’s, and different engines. WNW tend to bring out all the variants. Edited September 6, 2019 by Pup7309 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev IIRC, the Sopwith Comic was a home defense variant of the F.1 with the guns over the wings, cockpit moved back and some other differences.

I like the snub nose camel but there seems something more ‘balanced’ about having the cockpit further back, to my eye anyway.

Dave Williams Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 The Comic was a nightfighter/home defense version of the Camel. The prevent the pilot from being blinded by the muzzle flash, the fuselage guns were replaced with a pair of Lewis guns on Foster mounts atop the upper wing and the cockpit was moved back about 12 inches.
