One of the several post WWI Bristol F.2 Fighter versions was rhe Bristol Tourer.
Six Bristol tourers were ordered by the Greek Navy in 1926 as the "Bristol type 81A Greek trainer". They had Marconi radio, oleo landing gear, frise ailerons, enlarged fin, rudder, and no slats.
My model is based on Roden's Bristol F.2B Mk4, several modification required to built the "Greek trainer".
