Farman F.130

The Farman F.130 was a French long-range day bomber biplane of the 1920s, designed by Farman. It was a single-engined design in the BN.3 category, based on the larger twin-engined F.60 Goliath, with a conventional tailskid undercarriage and three open tandem cockpits. A nose-mounted Farman 18Wd W-18 piston engine of 447 kilowatts powered it to a maximum speed of 195 kilometres per hour, and it was designed to carry up to 700 kilograms of bombs with four machine guns. After a series of test flights it proved underpowered with only one engine, it aroused no interest from domestic or export customers, and it was not ordered into production. One F.130 BN.3 night bomber and one almost identical transport version, the F.130T, were built.
