Latécoère 6

Military Aircraft

The Latécoère 6 was a French four-engined biplane bomber of the early 1920s. It was of advanced all-metal construction and was probably the first aircraft to use geodetic construction. Only one was built. Its importance lies in this structural approach rather than in any service career. The company's product list describes it as a four-engine bomber biplane and dates it to 1924, and a related three-engine design, the Latécoère 5, is listed as a prototype bomber biplane developed from the Latécoère 4.
