Farman H.F.27

The Farman H.F.20 had proved to be fragile and underpowered, so the Farman H.F.27 increased engine power, wingspan, and replaced the boom structure with all-metal fittings. Aviation Militaire declined to buy any, but fifty were built in Russia, the RFC equipped two squadrons, thirty-four were used by the RNAS. They had a long lifetime, a testament to their improved durability, and Zeppelin LZ-38 was destroyed in its shed by RNAS HF.27s. Greece purchased four for use in the Aegean.
