REP Type N
[2] The fuselage was constructed of steel tube and was of triangular cross-section, with the apex on the ventral side.[2] Intelligence provided by reconnaissance aircraft proved a decisive factor in the Allied victory at the Marne.[3] In January 1915, the two units merged and were re-equipped with Caudron G.3s, but continued to operate the REP Type N at least as late as March.[2] The Type N also formed the backbone of the Ottoman Air Service in 1912, and these machines were used operationally during the First and Second Balkan War in 1912–13.[2] At the outbreak of war, two Ottoman Type Ns were seized while in transit through Serbia, and were put into Serbian military service.
