The C.VIII represented a larger reconnaissance platform with three-crew configuration for increased mission complexity. Its 11.2-meter fuselage and single engine produced 228 km/h, while the 650-kilometer range suited continental patrols. The expanded crew allowed dedicated observer and photographer roles for intelligence operations.
