A Sopwith Camel

This is RAF Museum in Hendon, one of the many brilliant museums in London. Whilst not centrally located, it is definitely worth a visit.

Ritter ‘Ersatz S’ - "Chopped Up & Welded Together"

Role: Improvised Scout Served With: N/A First Flight: ??? Strengths: Fast, Agile, Lethal Weaknesses: Unstable, Reliability Inspiration: Sopwith Camel/Snipe

Description:

Rotary engines require castor oil for lubrication, and the Macchi Republics produced more than 90% of the castor oil in Himmilgard. As relations with Gotha and Fokker worsened, this supply was cut off, forcing Macchi’s enemies to turn to liquid-cooled engines and synthetic lubrication.

When Macchi was defeated, Gotha seized huge numbers of Ritter Model Fs, stripping out the engines to put them in their Kreuzer triplanes. They also seized the blueprints for the 230hp W.O.3 engine and were in the process of producing them for their next-generation fighters when the end of the world came.

If you were trapped in an industrial city in Gotha and you needed to make a plane to escape, you could do worse than attach one of those half-finished rotary engines to a cannibalized Model F airframe. There would be drawbacks, though: the engine is too large to fit the cowl, it’d need a heavy metal mounting frame, and would block the barrels of the machine-guns. But it could be done.

Ritter Model F 'Singvogel' - "Defender of the Doomed Republics"

Role: Scout/Attacker Served With: UWF, Macchi First Flight: 1587 Strengths: Jack of All Trades Weaknesses: Unstable, Overspeed Inspiration: Sopwith Camel (1916)

Description:

The most famous Ritter design, the Model F Singvogel was designed around high-powered engines that were becoming available as the Macchi Republics began to support the war effort in the UWF. Originally very similar to a Model C, it was upgunned and made more dangerous following a bombing raid on the Ritter factories.

The Model F’s effectiveness comes from aggressively clustering all the machine’s weight in a small forward area and moving the wings up to match. Thus, the machine can make incredibly aggressive turns, but is so unstable that it will slip into a complex spin with little provocation.

The Model F continued to be produced in Macchi even as the UWF fell. Even now it is a common sight in the hands of professional militias who can handle the training time and afford the losses that come with training new Singvogel pilots.
