The French built SPAD XIII was one of the most famous fighters of World War I. The SPAD used a liquid-cooled inline engine when most aircraft were equipped with rotary engines. A powerful and efficient craft, the SPAD was used for many years. Armed with one or two Vickers 7.65mm machine guns firing through the propeller arc or a dealy 37mm Hotchikiss cannon, the SPAD was widely feared.
