[1][2] The initial tri-motor R-VII was rejected along with all other proposals by Polish air manufacturers, as none were deemed skilled and experienced enough to build large, complicated bombers.
[1] Because of that the newly created 2nd Destroyer Squadron of the 1st Air Regiment in 1926 was equipped with 32 Farman Goliath bombers bought in France.
[4] A high-wing trimotor biplane of mixed construction, the aeroplane was to be powered by three radial engines of 485 kilowatts (650 hp) each and be able to deliver up to 1,500 kilograms (3,300 lb) of bombs.
[4] While superior to contemporary French-made bombers, the project was far from ready and the ministry decided that before serial production could commence, the design would already be outdated.
[3] As an alternative to the Fokkers, in 1930 Jerzy Rudlicki restarted works on his design and by 1932 created a modified version, with only two radial engines and a payload of 1,000 kilograms (2,200 lb) of bombs.
