SPAD S.XIII – historical background

The French SPAD S.XIII was one of the most important fighters used by the Entente powers during World War I, especially by France, Great Britain, Belgium, the USA, and Italy. The aircraft was a development of the successful S.VII design and was characterized by excellent speed and a robust airframe. Among the famous aces who flew the SPAD S.XIII were René Fonck and the American Eddie Rickenbacker. The aircraft participated intensely in combat operations during 1917-1918, and after the war, remained in service with some countries' air forces even into the early 1920s.
