Developed and produced in 1916 the R.A.F. SE-5 aircraft was easy to fly. Stable and forgiving, even a mediocre pilot could capitalize on the steadiness of the aircraft, firing at the enemy from further away with a greater degree of accuracy. Equipped with the Wolseley Viper V-8 engine, performance and reliability was greater than earlier British fighter aircraft.
