The Macchi M.12 was a biplane flying boat bomber designed by Alessandro Tonini, and produced in small numbers by Macchi in Italy in 1918.[1]

Design and development

The M.12 had a conventional design, generally similar to an enlarged version of other Macchi designs of the period, and featured the Warren truss-style interplane struts that had been introduced on the Macchi M.9.[2] A major difference however, was its twin-boom fuselage,[1] each with a separate tailfin.[2] An M.12 was entered in the Schneider Trophy race of 1920, but did not compete.

The M.12bis was a civil variant with five seats and a wingspan extended to 18 m (59 ft), intended to carry passengers and mail.[3]
