Vickers FB.5 Gunbus Pioneer SOL'S Unisex Basic Zip Hoodie | SOL'S 01714

Dive into the thrilling era of WW1 with the Vickers FB.5 Gunbus, a pioneering force in aerial combat! Operational from 1914, this biplane was among the first to be designed specifically for air-to-air combat. With its innovative pusher configuration, the Gunbus allowed for an unobstructed firing line for its forward-mounted machine gun, a game-changer in the skies. Manufactured by the legendary Vickers company, the FB.5 played a crucial role in the early stages of the war, serving valiantly in the Royal Flying Corps. Its robust design, featuring a wooden frame covered in fabric, and the distinctive pusher engine, made it a formidable opponent. Although it was eventually outclassed by faster, more agile fighters, the Vickers Gunbus laid the groundwork for future aerial warfare strategies and remains a celebrated icon of WW1 aviation history.
