The Sopwith Triplane was a British single seat fighter aircraft designed and manufactured by the Sopwith Aviation Company. Pilots nicknamed it the Tripehound or simply the Tripe. The Triplane became operational with the Royal Naval Air Service in early 1917 and was immediately successful. It was flown by a number of famous aces, such as Raymond Collishaw, Roderic Stanley Dallas and Robert Alexander Little. Designed to be used with the popular air combat game system created by Andrea Angiolino and Pier Giorgio Paglia, each WW1 Wings of Glory Airplane Pack is a ready-to-play model, painted and assembled, 100% compatible with any other WW1 Wings of Glory game product. In each pack you will find all you need to play with the airplane: a special base with gaming stats, a variable altitude flying stand, and a specific deck of maneuver cards. –Description from the publisher
