Developed from the SPAD V, of which 268 were ordered but none certainly built as SPAD Vs, the SPAD S. VII was a single-seat tractor biplane fighter of simple and robust design powered by the new Hispano-Suiza water-cooled V-8 engine.

The SPAD XII was a minor variant, the first to use the geared Hispano-Suiza V-8 engine, which allowed it to be armed with a 37 mm Hotchkiss cannon ( moteur-canon ) firing through the propeller hub.

The SPAD S. XIII was essentially the SPAD S. VII redesigned around a more powerful geared drive Hispano-Suiza engine, as used on the SPAD XII.

Later a multi-fuel diesel engine was adopted, developed by Hispano-Suiza.

The HS. 404 was widely used on pre-war French fighter plane designs, notably in installations firing through the drive shaft of the Hispano-Suiza 12Y engine, a system they referred to as a moteur-canon (" engine cannon ").

The first aircraft factory in Japan, Nakajima Aircraft Company, was founded in 1916 and later obtained a license to produce the Nieuport 24 and Nieuport 29C1 as well as the Hispano-Suiza engine.

Finally, on May 12 – 13, 1930, the trip across the South Atlantic by air finally took place: a Latécoère 28 mail plane fitted with floats and a Hispano-Suiza engine made the first nonstop flight.

For instance, for many years Rolls Royce installed Hispano-Suiza designed power brakes in its vehicles.

He also won fame for the aircraft engines and guns he designed at Hispano-Suiza as chief engineer.

The ADEN ( named for the Armament Development Establishment, where it was designed, and Enfield, where it was produced ) was developed in the late 1940s as a replacement for the older Hispano-Suiza HS. 404 20 mm cannon used in British aircraft of World War II.

The same year, Peugeot returned to racing with a team of three driver-engineers ( a breed typical of the pioneer period, exemplified by Enzo Ferrari among others ): Jules Goux ( graduate of Arts et Metiers, Paris ), Paolo Zuccarelli ( formerly of Hispano-Suiza ), and Georges Boillot ( collectively called Les Charlatans ), with 26-year-old Swiss engineer Ernest Henry to make their ideas reality.

The mascot statuette atop the radiator after World War I was the stork, the symbol of the French province of Alsace, taken from the squadron emblem painted on the side of a Hispano-Suiza powered fighter aircraft that had been flown by the World War I French ace Georges Guynemer.

Influenced by the rakish Hispano-Suiza roadsters of the time, Earl's LaSalle emerged as a smaller, yet elegant counterpoint to Cadillac's larger cars, unlike anything else built by an American automotive manufacturer.

Marc Birkigt ( 1878 – 1953 ) was a Swiss engineer who moved to Barcelona, Spain when he was hired as an engineer by Emilio de la Cuadra, founder of Hispano-Suiza automobiles.

In 1931 the company was taken over by Hispano-Suiza.

Swift decline followed: the last model was practically a Hispano-Suiza, and only the chassis was provided by Ballot.

The Hispano-Suiza HS. 404 was an autocannon widely used as both an aircraft and land weapon in the 20th century by British, American, French, and numerous other military services.

In 1933, the Swiss chief engineer of Hispano-Suiza, Marc Birkigt, began work on the design of an entirely new weapon to replace the Oerlikon contract, based on a locking mechanism patented in 1919 by the American machine-gun designer Carl Swebilius.

The FF series inspired many 20mm cannon used in World War II, including the Hispano-Suiza HS. 404 ( adopted by the French, British and U. S. forces ), the German MG FF, and the Japanese Type 99 cannon.

This design was later abandoned by Hispano-Suiza.

BMARC was a subsidiary of Hispano-Suiza and then was owned until 1987 by Oerlikon, the Swiss defence contractor.
