Part American, not german.

I have to say the information contradicts each other, I only found this out after posting..
But the info given up to now is unambiguous.

British inventor and 'some'(?) being built there, one (i think) built by the French, and several by the Americans.
One of the few english-built flew in the RFC.
Others were used in the US Signal Corps, United States Navy and Canadian Aviation Corps, also in a militia role.
Not really used in the european war theatre as far as i know.

Exact designation, please (insert devil smiley here)

Not a BE2.x. The ac in question has not been really used in the war AFAIK. Was invented before the war and used until after.

Hint: Curtiss was a fan.
