CFS2 Anadwa Salmson VKh Light Bomber
5-seat Russian twin-fuselage light bomber biplane, constructed in 1917 by Vassili Nikolayevich Khioni, with two Anatra DS or Ansal fuselages. It was powered by two water-cooled, cowled 9-cyl 140 hp Salmson radial engines and top speed was 76 kt. A small number were built. The Khioni dual-fuselage biplane series was regarded by technical experts of the time as one of the best large aircraft of the Russian aviation. An order for 50 units for the Russian Imperial Aviation was thwarted by the revolution.
