The Short Admiralty Type 184 was a British two-seat reconnaissance, bombing and torpedo carrying folding-wing seaplane designed by Horace Short of Short Brothers. It was first flown in 1915 and remained in service until after the armistice in 1918. A Short 184 was the first aircraft to sink a ship using a torpedo.

This is the version that can fly, Thanks to @TMach5 for making this beauty fly
