Nniiden Airco DH.9 (from de Havilland 9) – also known after 1920 as the de Havilland DH.9 – was a British single-engined biplane bomber developed and deployed during the First World War. The DH.9 was a development of Airco’s earlier successful DH.4, with which it shared many components. These were mated to an all-new fuselage and the BHP/Galloway Adriatic engine, which promised increased performance. Anticipating its usefulness, the type was ordered in very large numbers for Britain’s Royal Flying Corps (RFC).

Lisätietoja:

The Airco DH.9 was a British single-engine biplane bomber developed and deployed during the First World War. It was designed by Geoffrey de Havilland for the Aircraft Manufacturing Company (Airco) as an improvement of the earlier Airco DH.4, which had proved successful as a light bomber.
The DH.9 had a modified fuselage that moved the pilot closer to the gunner/observer and away from the engine and fuel tank. However, the DH.9 also used a new engine, the Siddeley Puma, which was unreliable and underpowered, resulting in poor performance and a high rate of losses. Despite its shortcomings, the DH.9 was produced in large numbers and served with several air forces until the late 1920s.
