About: Farman HF.20

An Entity of Type: mean of transportation, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Farman HF.20 and its derivatives were a family of reconnaissance aircraft produced in France shortly before and during the First World War. It was a refined version of the Farman MF.11 "Shorthorn" that did away with the type's distinctive landing skids, and incorporated design features from Henri Farman's designs. It entered service with the French, Belgian and Serbian armies in 1913 (two aircraft conducted reconnaissance during the Siege of Scutari in the First Balkan War and one crashed), and with the British RFC and RNAS shortly after the outbreak of war. The type was also licence-built in the UK by Airco and Grahame-White.

  • The Farman HF.20 and its derivatives were a family of reconnaissance aircraft produced in France shortly before and during the First World War. It was a refined version of the Farman MF.11 "Shorthorn" that did away with the type's distinctive landing skids, and incorporated design features from Henri Farman's designs.

The type was also licence-built in the UK by Airco and Grahame-White. The HF.20 was seriously underpowered, and a variety of engines were trialled in the hope of correcting this, none with much success. The problem was eventually solved only when an engine of twice the power of the original powerplant was fitted to the HF.27 variant, by which time the aircraft was already obsolete. Nevertheless, the performance of the HF.20 made it adequate for use on secondary fronts. (en)
  • De Farman HF.20 is een Franse dubbeldekker. Het werd ingezet als verkenningsvliegtuig kort voor en aan het begin van de Eerste Wereldoorlog. Het was ontworpen en gebouwd door de vliegtuigfabriek van Henri Farman. De eerste vlucht vond plaats in 1913. (nl)
  • Il Farman HF.20 e le sue varianti erano una famiglia di aerei da ricognizione prodotti in Francia poco prima e durante la prima guerra mondiale. Si trattava di una versione evoluta del Farman MF.11 "Shorthorn" a cui erano stati tolti i pattini di atterraggio distintivi del modello da cui derivava e che incorporava caratteristiche tipiche dei progetti di Henri Farman. Entrò in servizio con gli eserciti francese, belga e serbo (nel 1913 due aerei condussero una ricognizione durante l'assedio di Scutari nella prima guerra balcanica del 1912-1913 ed uno si schiantò) e con i Royal Flying Corps e la RNAS britanniche poco dopo lo scoppio della guerra. Venne anche costruito su licenza dalla Jero in Belgio, dalla Società Costruzioni Aeronautiche Savoia in Italia (con motore Fiat A.10 o Colombo da 100 CV), dalla Aircraft Manufacturing Co. (Airco) e dalla Grahame-White Aviation nel Regno Unito, nonché da altri produttori. Il motore era in genere uno Gnome rotativo da 70 CV o 80 CV od un Le Rhône rotativo da 80 CV, anche se alcuni esemplari furono dotati di motori Alessandro Anzani o di altri propulsori. L'HF.20 era seriamente sottopotenziato ed furono provati vari motori nella speranza di correggere questo difetto, senza ottenere molto successo. Il problema fu infine risolto solo quando sulla variante HF.27 fu montato un motore di potenza doppia rispetto al propulsore originale, quando però l'aereo era già obsoleto. Tuttavia, le prestazioni dell'HF.20 lo rendevano adeguato per l'uso su fronti secondari. (it)
