The Sopwith Tabloid was a British biplane, originally designed as sports aircraft and later adapted for military use. They were among the first types to be built by the Sopwith Aviation Company. The "Tabloid", so named because of its small size, caused a sensation when it made its first public appearance.

Single-seat variants of the Tabloid went into production in 1914 and 36 eventually entered service with the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS). Deployed to France at the outbreak of the First World War, Tabloids were used as fast scouts.

Together with the Camel, the SE5 was instrumental in regaining allied air superiority in mid-1917 and maintaining it for the rest of the war.

Many of the top Allied aces flew this fighter, including Billy Bishop, Edward Mannock and James McCudden. Legendary British ace Albert Ball was initially disparaging of the SE5, but in the end claimed 11 of his 44 victories flying it. McCudden wrote of the SE5 "It was very fine to be in a machine that was faster than the Huns, and to know that one could run away just as things got too hot."
