One of 27 frames that were built for the US Navy. The FB-5 was the successor of the FB-1 and first flew on October 7, 1926. It featured a stronger engine, increased positive wing stagger and an aerodynamically balanced rudder with increased area (the latter not in the first frame however). 27 frames were produced, A-7101 to A-7127.
