The Voisin VII was a French reconnaissance pusher biplane of the First World War, developed by Voisin in 1916 as an enlarged Voisin V with the engine cooling radiators moved to the nose. It carried a crew of two and a single 7.7 mm machine gun, was powered by a 130 kW (180 hp) Renault 8G V-8 water-cooled engine driving a two-bladed pusher propeller, and spanned 17.93 metres, wider than the V it grew from. Even with its improvements over its predecessor it was underpowered, and it proved a stopgap in the sequence of Voisin pusher designs that led to the VIII and the X. Specifications give a maximum speed of 112 km/h at sea level and an endurance of four and a half hours. It served with the French Aeronautique Militaire.
