SIAI S.13

Flying Boats and Seaplanes

The SIAI S.13 was a single-engine biplane reconnaissance flying boat of 1919, designed by Societa Idrovolanti Alta Italia as a smaller version of the earlier S.12. Two crew sat side by side behind a single windscreen, with the observer handling a single machine gun, and power came from a 187 kW Isotta Fraschini V.6 engine giving a top speed of about 197 kilometres per hour. The Royal Italian Navy took delivery of 12 aircraft in 1919, and examples were exported to Japan, Norway, Spain, Sweden and Yugoslavia. The design was built under licence in France as the CAMS C.13 and by the Spanish naval workshops in Barcelona, which made seven. A single-seat version and a civil version were planned but not built.
