Design and development
It was developed using the wings and tail of the C.XII reconnaissance aircraft and adding a new, armoured fuselage and heavier armament. Operationally, a success, the main drawback of the type was that the armour was found to be inadequate for its role.
Operators
- Polish Air Force operated 10 aircraft postwar until 1921.
