There are only 4 other F-1 Camels left in the world today. In addition, there are 3 Navy Type Camels designated 2F-1. All of these are permanently in museums in various stages of originality. Even the Army, Navy, Air Force and Smithsonian museums do not have a "real" Camel! They have only replicas.

Who invented the Sopwith camel airplane?
Sopwith F.1 Camel was one of the fighter aircraft built by the British company Sopwith that was owned by Sir Thomas Octave Murdoch Sopwith, C.B.E.. This aircraft was a derivation of the Sopwith Pup. There were at least 3 prototype versions before the design was finalized. These were identified as F.1/1 and F.1/2 and F.1/3. These were test flown at Martlesham in May 1917. The final design used the 130-hp Clerget 9B and 150-hp B.R.1 engines.This aircraft was the first British plane to go into combat with twin guns that were synchronized to fire through the propeller arc. The twin machine guns mounted on top of the fuselage were covered by a fairing thus giving it a 'hump' on the otherwise straight lines of the aircraft---thus the name the "Camel". The version used by the British Navy removed the fuselage mounted guns and mounted twin Lewis guns over the top wing, thus eliminating the "camel hump".References:"Aeroplanes and Flyers of the First World War" (1973) by Joseph A.
