Summary

[edit]
Description
Nederlands: de Havilland DH.9A in het RAF Museum, Hendon, London.

De Airco DH.9 - na 1920 ook bekend als de Havilland DH.9 - is een Britse eenmotorige tweedekkerbommenwerper die werd ontwikkeld en ingezet tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog. Bij de indienststelling werden de prestaties van de DH.9 onbevredigend bevonden.

In tegenstelling tot zijn voorganger, de DH9, kreeg de DH9A een benijdenswaardige reputatie op het gebied van betrouwbaarheid. Hoewel het zogezegd slechts van het eerdere toestel verschilde door betrouwbaardere Amerikaanse motor te gebruiken, was de nieuwe DH9A in feite een compleet herontwerp. Tegen het einde van 1918 waren er bijna negenhonderd gebouwd.
English: de Havilland DH.9A at the RAF Museum, Hendon, London.

The Airco DH.9 – also known after 1920 as the de Havilland DH.9 – is a British single-engined biplane bomber that was developed and deployed during the First World War. Upon entering service, the DH.9's performance was found to be unsatisfactory.

In marked contrast with its predecessor, the DH9, the DH9A gained an enviable reputation for reliability. Although nominally a conversion of the earlier aircraft, to take a more reliable American engine, the new DH9A was in fact a complete re-design. By the end of 1918 nearly nine-hundred had been built.
