A Bristol F.2B Fighter fitted with the Bristol Jupiter radial engine and an oleo-type undercarriage, the Jupiter Fighter was fast but short on range. Seen here at ILUG in Gothenburg, G-EBGF crashed in England in November 1923 after an engine failure, but the second of three conversions, G-EBGH, was purchased by the Swedish air force following cold-weather trials in Kiruna.
