Wibault 7

Variants were operated by the French and Polish military and built under licence for Chile as the Vickers Wibault.

Developed from the earlier Wib.3 the Wibault 7 was a C.I category single-seat high-wing braced parasol monoplane fighter powered by a 480 hp (360 kW) Gnome-Rhone 9Ad radial engine.

The main difference from earlier aircraft was the use of an all-metal construction system which was patented by Wibault.

The French Navy bought some carrier-capable Wib.74s with a strengthened fuselage and arrestor hook.

Re-engined with a 400 hp (298 kW) Hispano 12 Jb engine but redesignated Wib.9 before completion.
