Blériot-SPAD S.XXII

Pioneer and Early Aviation Aircraft

The Blériot-SPAD S.XXII was a prototype fighter built by SPAD. The lead sentence of the English Wikipedia article dates it only as 'shortly World War I', so no more precise period is recorded here. It was a two-seat biplane fighter of all-wood construction with a canvas coating and a monocoque fuselage, and its upper and lower wings tended to sweep in opposite directions. The specification lists a length of 6.48 m, a wingspan of 9.8 m, a height of 2.56 m, a wing area of 26.2 square metres and an empty weight of 650 kg, with one 220 kW Hispano-Suiza 8Fb water-cooled V-8 piston engine. No gross weight or performance figures are given.
