The Brandenburg W.17 fighter prototype was an intermediate step between the Brandenburg CC and W.18. Both those types were produced in quantity and saw operational service, while the W.17 remained a single prototype. Designed in Germany, the W.17 was evaluated by the Austro-Hungarian kuk Kriegsmarine and is shown here in the markings of that service.

The W.17 under test by Brandenburg personnel before shipment to Austria-Hungary. Its development from the Type CC flying boat is evident in this view. Gottfried Banfield, the leading Austro-Hungarian naval ace, judged that the cantilevered lower wing was not sturdy enough for maritime operations.

First of the diminutive single-seat flying-boats. No details available, but doubtless data was not greatly dissimilar to that of W 18 which followed. Provision for two Spandau machine-guns.
