5-seat, dual-fuselage light bomber biplane constructed in 1917 by Vassili Nikolayevich Khioni, former chief designer of Anatra. It was constructed with two Anatra DS fuselages and Anatra D wings, and equipped with two water-cooled, cowled 9-cyl 140 hp Salmson radial engines. Top speed was 76 kt. Bomb payload was 1430 lb, and the defensive armament of 3 machine-guns was formidable. It was easy to fly, very maneuverable, and a nimble climber, being regarded by experts as one of the best large Russian aircraft of the time. 60 or 70 units were built, and saw service with both the Imperial Russian Air Service as well as the Bolschevik Army. Both liveries are provided in this release, including modified Schweizer panel for default gauges, CFS1 flight dynamics, SACSM-corrected virtual cockpit, Dp files and AFX-PCX Source files. Textures with support from Udo Entenmann.
