Nieuport 6H

The Nieuport 6H was a seaplane version of the Nieuport 6M. Small changes were made the airframe in addition to the addition of floats. The plane was the backbone of Aviation Maritime during the early months of the war and despite their early successes (including scouting the Turkish approach on the Suez canal), their limitations were soon evident. Some had their floats replaced with conventional undercarriages, which improved their performance.

Turkey had received a few before the war and one was used in the Dardanelles. The RNAS received twelve and they were mostly used as trainers.
