사진 갤러리 로얄 항공기 공장 BE2A, The Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.2 was a British single-engine tractor two-seat biplane which was in service with the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) from 1912 until the end of World War I. About 3,500 were built. Initially used as front-line reconnaissance aircraft and light bombers; variants of the type were also used as night fighters. Like many warplanes since, the B.E.2 was retained in front-line service long after it had become obsolete, for want of a suitable replacement. After its belated withdrawal it finally served as a trainer, communications aircraft and on anti-submarine coastal patrol duties.

The Royal Aircraft Factory BE2A was a variant of the BE2, a two-seat biplane that was designed for reconnaissance and light bombing missions. The BE2A first flew in February 1912 and entered service with the Royal Flying Corps later that year. It was powered by a 70 hp RAF-1a V-8 engine and had a maximum speed of 116 km/h. It was armed with a single Lewis machine gun and could carry up to 102 kg of bombs.
The BE2A was notable for being very stable and easy to fly, which made it suitable for observation and photography duties. However, it also lacked manoeuvrability and speed, which made it vulnerable to enemy fighters, especially the German Fokker Eindecker. The BE2A suffered heavy losses during the First World War and earned the nickname “flying coffin” from its pilots. Despite its obsolescence, it remained in front-line service until 1917, when it was replaced by more advanced aircraft.
The BE2A also had some successes as a night fighter against German airships. In August 1916, Captain William Leefe Robinson shot down a Zeppelin over Britain using a BE2A, earning him the Victoria Cross and a large reward. The BE2A was also used for coastal patrol, anti-submarine warfare, and training roles until the end of the war. About 3,500 BE2s of all variants were built by various manufacturers, including the Royal Aircraft Factory itself. A few examples of the BE2A are preserved in museums around the world.
