Sept 1940.

Note: This is a sub-section of Short Brothers.

The Short Admiralty Type 184, often called the Short 225 after the power rating of the engine first fitted, was a two-seat reconnaissance, bombing and torpedo carrying folding-wing seaplane designed by Horace Short of Short Brothers. It was first flown in 1915 and remained in service until after the armistice in 1918. A Short 184 was the first aircraft to sink a ship using a torpedo, and another was the only British aircraft to take part in the Battle of Jutland.
