Design [ edit ]

The C.360 was a low-wing monoplane racer design to be powered by one 205 hp (153 kW) Régnier 6 engine, but
lack of availability required the use of 170 hp (130 kW) Renault 4Pei Bengali engines in two of the three aircraft,
which were re-designated C.362. The third C.360 airframe was completed with a 215 hp (160 kW) Régnier 6
engine and was re-designated C.366 Martinet.
