Serials 22-201/225 are Aeromarine built NBS-1. This bomber was originally known as Martin MB-2.
Martin delivered 10 MB-2 [64195/64214], L.W.F. 35 NBS-1 [68437/68471] and Curtiss 25 NBS-1 [68478/68527]. These aircrafts are notorious for having sunk the ex-German battle cruiser *Ostfreisland* during tests led by the famous Billy Mitchell on July 21, 1921.
