Caudron R.6

The Caudron R.6 was a French reconnaissance aircraft of World War I. It was a scaled-down version of the Caudron R.4. It eliminated the R.4's nose-gunner and used smaller engines (Le Rhônes of 82 kW). Some 750 of these aircraft were built, three times the production of the original R.4 design.
