The Blackburn R.2 Airedale was a single-engine, three-seat monoplane designed for deck landing and for land and sea reconnaissance, built in the United Kingdom in 1924. Only two were built. The first was constructed for trials against the Hawker Hedgehog and crashed after those trials, and a second Airedale went to Martlesham Heath for testing in 1926. At the front it carried a metal mounting for an uncowled 385 horsepower Armstrong Siddeley Jaguar III radial engine, and at the rear an empennage similar to that of the earlier B.1. The pilot could enter the cabin if needed, in which case the navigator could fly the aircraft from a rear folding seat provided with duplicate controls.
