The aircraft was intensively used during the years 1915-1916, i.e., during the First World War. Its design was innovative – its most distinctive feature was a gunner’s gondola located in front of the propeller, which enabled free operation of the machine gun before the introduction of synchronization gears.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    On the Western Front, the SPAD A.2 was used for escort missions and aerial combat with German and Austro-Hungarian fighters.
