The Caudron C.690 was a single-seat training aircraft developed in France in the late 1930s to train fighter pilots to handle high-performance aircraft. It was a conventional low-wing cantilever monoplane that bore a strong resemblance to designer Marcel Riffard's racer designs of the same period. Caudron attempted to attract overseas sales for the aircraft, but this resulted in orders for only two machines - one from Japan, and the other from the USSR. In the meantime, the first of two prototypes was destroyed in a crash that killed René Paulhan, Caudron's chief test pilot.

  • The Caudron C.690 was a single-seat training aircraft developed in France in the late 1930s to train fighter pilots to handle high-performance aircraft.

In the meantime, the first of two prototypes was destroyed in a crash that killed René Paulhan, Caudron's chief test pilot. Despite this, the Armée de l'Air eventually showed interest in the type, and ordered a batch of a slightly refined design. The first of these was not delivered until April 1939, and only 15 C.690Ms were supplied before the outbreak of war. (en)

Malgré cela, l'armée de l'air française finit par s'intéresser au type et commande un lot d'une conception légèrement affinée. Le premier ne sera livré qu'en avril 1939, et seuls quinze C.690M seront livrés avant le début de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. (fr)
