EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Sopwith Baby, a versatile aircraft that served as both a reconnaissance and light bomber during World War I. Commissioned by the Navy, this particular model (fourth Naval Allocation No 8133) was initially equipped with a powerful 110hp LeClerget Rotary air-cooled engine, which was later upgraded to an even more impressive 130hp Clerget engine. The Sopwith Baby played a crucial role in coastal defense and patrolling duties throughout the war. With its ability to operate from both land bases and seaplane carriers, it proved invaluable in various theaters of conflict including the Channel, North Sea, Egypt, Italy, and Palestine. In this remarkable image captured in 1916, we can see the Lewis gun mounted on top of its wing – a testament to its offensive capabilities. The sleek design of this British aircraft is evident as it soars through the sky with grace and power. As one gazes at this historic photograph from TopFoto's collection dedicated to World War I aviation, it serves as a reminder of the incredible technological advancements made during that era. This Sopwith Baby represents not only an iconic symbol of aerial warfare but also pays tribute to those brave men who flew these machines into battle for their country's cause.
