Sopwith Type 860

The Sopwith Seaplane, Admiralty Type 860 was a competitor to the Short Type 184 as a torpedo-carrying seaplane. It had at least two configurations: one with equal-span wings, another with a longer top wing supported by king posts. Only about eighteen were built since the Short 184 had become the standard for this type of seaplane. Some 860s were still serving in 1916.
