This is a 1:144 scale model of a French Salmson 7 two-seater. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.

Perhaps the chief criticism of the fine Salmson 2 was the wide separation of the pilot and observer. The Salmson 7 sought to rectify that by placing them back-to-back in a shared cockpit. The wings were somewhat larger and were slightly swept. Like its predecessor, it retained the single-piece horizontal and vertical tail surfaces.

Had the war continued, thousands of Salmson 7's would have been built, enough to equip seventy-four squadrons. But by the Armistice only twenty had been delivered to front line units, and outstanding orders were cancelled.

Like the Salmson 2, the Salmson 7 would have probably been a fast, robust machine, well-suited to its mission.
