The BFW N.I was an experimental night bomber designed and built in Germany during the First World War.
Development
In August 1917, the Idflieg commissioned Bayerische Flugzeugwerke to create a night bomber capable of carrying a bomb load of 500 kilograms. The design that emerged was a two-seat triplane powered by a single Mercedes D.IVa inline engine. Its maiden flight took place in the summer of 1918; however, it did not proceed beyond the prototype phase into mass production.
