Caudron C.710

The Caudron C.710 Cyclone was derived from the Coupe Deutsch de la Meurthe racing monoplanes. First flown on 18 July 1936, the C 710-01 was subsequently fitted with two drum-fed 20mm HS-9 cannon in the wings, and was tested at Guyancourt and Villacoublay throughout 1937. More powerful engines resulted in the C.711 and C.712. The C.713 which flew on 15 December 1937 introduced retractable landing gear and a more conventional triangular vertical stabilizer. This was then developed into the C.714 production model of which approximately 90 were built.
