The Marinens Flyvebaatfabrikk M.F.12 (sometimes known as the Høver M.F.12, after its designer) was a seaplane built in Norway in 1939 as a military trainer aircraft[1] to replace the Norwegian Navy's aging fleet of M.F.8 trainers.[2][3] Only a single prototype was constructed before Germany's invasion of Norway in 1940.[3] The prototype, M.F.12 F.14 (V), was the last trainer built for the Royal Norwegian Navy Air Service (RNNAS).[4]
