Br.24C1 was single seat fighter powered by Lorraine 450 hp engine intended for
the 1923 C1 program.
Br.25C2 was two seat fighter powered by Lorraine 480 hp engine intended for
the 1925 C2 program.
Br.29 was seaplane version of Br.27.
Br.30T was twin fuselage and powered by eight Renault 550 hp engines,it look like
the Bleriot 125.
Br.310 was transport aircraft with the Br.280T fuselage and wing of Br.27.
Br.320 was military three seat with Br.27 wing and powered by two Lorraine
230 hp engines.

Thanks a lot, Terry! I've updated the list with your additions. I'm aware this list is still incomplete but I'm still working on it, especially as far as the early types are concerned.

Thanks boxkite. I've included all your additions and also integrated AM's list from the first post.

I believe we now have the most complete Bréguet list ever published anywhere. Thanks folks, couldn't have done this without you!! ;)
 
@AM, sorry for ignoring your list based on Docavia book – my eyes were fixed on Stargazer’s designation list below your post. I discovered to do a ‘backup’ job too late yesterday evening. Nevertheless, a few small additions:

Br.1180 – Cuny/Leyvastre describe this project as competitor to Mirage IV. At first view it looks like a up-scaled Jaguar, but Br.1180 has more than twice the length of Br.126. So we should name it a strategic bomber as the authors did. Also there are six years between the starting signals of/for both aircraft (Br.1180 -> 1958 / Br.126 -> 1964).

Br.120 G – version of Br.120 with VG
w/o number (1964) – experimental a/c with VG
Br.123 – (1965) different layouts with jet or turboprop engines

Helicopters
G 10 A – small transport helicopter (1941-1942) with 1 x Gnome-Rhone 14 M
G 20 – combat helicopter (1938-1945) with 2 x Renault 6Q-04 (Projet initial de la Marine / également dénommé « Vuillerme »)
G 34 – small transport helicopter (1941) with 1 x Gnome-Rhone 14 M
G 111 - modification of G 11 E with 1 x P&W R985-SB5 instead of 1 x Potez 9 E00 in G 11 E
w/o number (1953) – ASW tandem helicopter with 2 x Alvis “Leonides”

three different ‘Jeep Volantes’ from 1959 w/o type number

That's all - no continuation by me ;) .
 
Thanks a lot AM for sending me your updated PDF. It enabled me to update the list some more, especially in the early types I to IV which I had no details about (I am hopelessly lame with World War I types!).
 
Hi,

for Breguet G.130 and G.161;please see;

http://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,2693.msg21687/highlight,breguet+130.html#msg21687
 
Neat helicopter projects! I've added them to the list.

As for the G.20 being called "Vuillerme", I decided to keep that information out for now since that was the name of Bréguet's rotary aircraft designer and I can't see the Navy calling a helo type that way... I'd have to see the original text to be sure.
 
Bréguet Br.273H

I have the Br.910 as the A.S.10 air-to-surface missile of 1947-48.

Hi,


Bre 1 was G.1
Bre 2 was G.2
Bre 3 was G.3
Bre 4 was SN.3
Bre 9 was a fighter developed from Bre 6
Bre 10 was AG.4
Bre 13 was also AG.4
Bre 15 was a light bomber,version of Br.14,with 400 hp Renault,Liberty or Lorraine engine
Bre 420 was a bomber recce aircraft based on Bre 414; http://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,10642.msg124006.html#msg124006

Also I can add;


Br.570 was three seat float seaplane project,developed from Br.273H and Br.290
Br.650 was twin engined monoplane project
 
And we still don't know what was the Breguet Br.1040. Cuny never found.

By contrast seems the Breguet Br.1030 mystery has been solved since 1977 and Cuny's book.

I think it was Breguet ASW or Executive Jet,because all those configurations
had been appeared in 1953 in the same time as Br.1030,but when you found
just a drawings and a small captions without indication to the designations,so we can suggest that ?.
 
Now that this forum gives the possibility to create or import charts from Excel, I will be able to share more of my research. Here is my personal list of Breguet projects. If you can add any kind of information, let me know: :)

Thanks. I think I got mixed up between Br.430 and Br.450. I don't know what Br.430 might have been.

List updated, thanks, hesham. I have inherited my dad's huge aviation library to complement my own, but haven't yet had the time to properly dig what's in there. Thousands of magazines, hundreds of books, including many of the Docavia series. Hopefully after I've moved in the Spring I will have time to look into it all and check whatever I can contribute to various topics.
 
I will make some speculations about missing numbers of the designation.
 
One general comment coming to me from Breguet family members: they use to never put accent on the first "e" of their name. They write "Breguet", not "Bréguet". This is visible on Louis Breguet signature, sometimes reproduced on the tail of his planes.
This is also officially confirmed by Louis Breguet birth certificate (see attached).

Funny, I think I wrote the exact same thing elsewhere on the forum! A member of the Breguet family who was on the "Deux-Ponts" Facebook page a few years ago told me as much in a private message.
