The Supermarine Seagull was a British reconnaissance biplane flying boat from the interwar period. The flight of the prototype took place in May 1921, and about 34 machines of this type were created in the course of serial production. In the Seagull II version, the drive was provided by a single 450 HP Napier Lion III engine. The machine was about 10.5 meters long with a wingspan of about 14 meters. The deck armament consisted of a single 7.7mm Lewis machine gun.

The Seagull plane was developed by Supermarine Aviation Works as a development of another flying boat of the company called the Seal. Compared to its predecessor, the machine received a slightly different power unit, its dimensions were changed, and it also received on-board armament. In total, several versions of this machine were created, including: Seagull Mk. I (basic version), Seagull Mk. II (version produced for the Royal Navy) or Seagull Mk. III (version for Australia, produced from 1925). It is worth adding that in the 1930s a version of the Seagull Mk. The V significantly differs from the previous versions, which over time received the Walrus designation. Apart from Australia and Great Britain, a single airplane was also operated in Japan.
