1917 - Blériot SPAD XIII, Fighter

 

The SPAD XIII was designed in 1916 as a counterpart to the heavier armed german fighters, like the Halbserstadt. Compared to the SPAD VII the XIII had it's firepower doubled with almost 800rounds aboard. France did put more than 2000 in service, the USA did buy som 893 between March and November 1918. The SPAD XIII had a limited visibility and insufficient rate of climb, but it was quite rugged and able to dive away from german chasing planes. In 1918 it was outclassed by the recent german fighters like the Fokker D VII.
