The Sikorsky S-19 was a Russian twin engine experimental prototype aircraft built late in 1916 by the Russian Baltic Railroad Car Works while Igor Sikorsky was head of the aviation division.

Design and development

The S-19 was a two bay sesquiplane powered by two 150 horsepower (112 kilowatts) Sunbeam Crusader water-cooled V-8 engines installed in push-pull configuration. Arranged as a Twin-boom aircraft, it had a large rudder located in the center of the empenage. Two crewmembers occupied cockpits in the foreword most section of the booms just forward of the lower wing and served as pilot and machine gunner.^[1]^[2]^[3]

Flight testing reveled sluggish performance and after a crash on the final flight it was scrapped.^[4]
