Bomber
Despite the aircraft name it appears to have been ordered as a fighter (a rather large one) fitted with a big gun. Sturtivant and Page's RN serials and units lists them as Dyott Twin-engined Tractor Fighter Biplanes. 3687 had a large COW gun fitted in November 1916 for trials at Grain and I think originally was to have a Vickers 2-pdr gun. Anybody know where the "bomber" came from? MilborneOne (talk) 16:32, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Just to add Bruce Robertsons British Military serials calls them both "Dyott Fighter"s. MilborneOne (talk) 16:35, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
