FBA типов A, B, C 1914 г.
Это был двухместный разведчик, трехстоечная, с подкосами, однореданная летающая лодка цельнодеревянной конструкции с двигателями "Гном" (50 л. с.; типы A, B) или "Клерже" (130 л. с.; тип C). Верхнее двухлонжеронное крыло имело большой размах и оборудовалось элеронами. Лодка имела вогнутый редан. Оперение обычного типа было поднято на загибе хвостовой части лодки и крепилось системой растяжек и распорок. Руль поворота без киля, у разных типов имел разную форму. Подкрыльевые поплавки первоначально металлические цилиндрические, на более поздних моделях - понтонного типа, деревянные. Вооружение отсутствовало.
Спроектированный как разведчик, самолет впоследствии использовался как учебная летающая лодка. Выпущено несколько сотен лодок FBA в различных вариантах.
Россия купила 30 машин типа C с двигателем "ГномМоносупап" (100 л. с.), еще 34 построили на заводе Лебедева. С 1915 года заменялась М-5 Д. П. Григоровича.

But this is not the case: this is Lake Garda, whose northern end was occupied by Austrian troops. The Italian army hastily created a small seaplane squadron and bought FBAs from France. Conneau, an employee of the firm, delivered them in July 1915 (Passot-Seguin Collection)
