French WW1 bomber aircraft
The Voisin XII was a prototype French two-seat four-engine biplane bomber built near the end of the First World War but which did not enter service.
Development.
The Voisin XII was a long-range night bomber with four Hispano-Suiza 8Bc engines mounted in pairs in tandem. The aircraft was built in response to the BN2 requirement for a long-range night bomber. One prototype was built and test flights were successful, but the war's end precluded the Voisin XII from being ordered into production.
The Voison XIII night-bomber or Type E.87-2 was a proposed development of the Voisin XII, it was not built.
