Friedrichshafen FF.60

The Friedrichshafen FF.60 was a German prototype long-range maritime patrol floatplane developed during World War I by the Friedrichshafen Aircraft Company (Flugzeugbau Friedrichshafen) for the Naval Air Service of the Imperial German Navy (Marine-Fliegerabteilung of the Kaiserliche Marine). It was a four-engined triplane with a crew of four men. Three aircraft were ordered in 1918, but only one is known to have been completed as the war ended in November.
