Kit of aircraft of  German WWI flying ace Ernst Udet and his Albatros D.V´s, Fokker Dr. I´s and Fokker D.VII´s.   - plastic parts: Eduard - marking options: 8 - decals: Eduard - PE parts: yes, pre-painted.

German Fokker Dr. I triple-lobe fighter plane from the First World War. The work of Anthony Fokker and Reinhold Plat. The plane was a German response to the appearance of the British Sopwith Triplane fighter. The Fokker Dr.I was characterized by fantastic maneuverability, a very high rate of climb, and achieved a decisive advantage in wheel combat with biplane planes. However, it had a low top speed (165 km / h), which was partly also due to the use of a weak 110 HP engine. The first pre-production vehicles (marked with the symbol V.5) were tested by eminent German pilots: Werner Voss and Manfred von Richthofen, nicknamed the "Red Baron". It was the latter who made this model of aircraft famous, winning many victories on it. Serial Fokker Dr. I planes served at the front from October 1917. until the end of the war. A total of 320 units were produced. Technical data: Top speed: 165 km / h; climb speed 5.7 m / s, maximum ceiling 6095 m, armament: two 7.92 mm Spandau machine guns, firing through a propeller.

Albatros DV is a biplane of wooden structure with the front part of the fuselage, covered with aluminum sheet. The DV version did not differ much from its predecessor, the D.III series, mainly in terms of the fuselage section - the DV had an elliptical hull, which made it lighter by about 50 kg. The construction of the aileron drive was solved differently. These small changes seemed so small that the new aircraft was not even tested. The construction of the 1,5-wing aircraft, as in Nieuport, required a light aircraft. The inline albatrosses were too heavy for that. When recovering the aircraft from a dive flight, the lower lobe of the DV tended to break off frequently; this disadvantage was not eliminated by the end of the war. The D.Va version was stronger, but also heavier. About 900 Albatros DV series aircraft were built. Technical data: Maximum speed: 186 km / h; climb speed 4.2 m / s, ceiling practical 5700 m, armament: two 7.92 mm LMG08 / 15 machine guns.The Fokker D.VII is a German biplane fighter with a mixed structure (plywood, canvas, aluminum) from the end of the First World War. The flight of the prototype took place in January 1918, and in May of the same year, the plane entered service in the air. The Fokker D VII quickly demonstrated its superiority over the Allied aircraft. It had higher acceleration and a higher ceiling, which, combined with very good control devices, made the German pilots able to defeat 565 Allied machines in August 1918. Designed by Reinhold Platz, D VII was selected from among many other designs during the competition between January-February 1918. Baron Manfred von Richthofen (known as the "Red Baron") himself flew a prototype marked with the code V11. He later stated that the plane was easy to navigate, had a good climb rate, and was suited to "dive" flights in which the Fokker was found to be "rock hard". Other pilots also emphasized good visibility from the cockpit. The plane was of a mixed construction. The rectangular hull was made of welded steel pipes with a cloth cover. Only the nose of the fuselage housing the engine had removable side covers made of aluminum sheet. Double-girder panels, connected with each other by thin N-shaped stands, free-bearing with a thick profile, covered with plywood up to the first girder, the rest with canvas. The plane used Mercedes D.IIIa (180-200HP) or BMW IIIa 185HP engines as the drive. The BMW engine was a much better power unit, but as a result of limited production, the Mercedes engine was used on a much larger scale. It is worth noting that the Fokker D.VII flew min. Herman Goring, who achieved many air victories on it. The quality of the machine can be proved by the fact that it was produced until 1926. Technical data (for the version with the BMW-Fokker D.VIIF engine): length: 6.95 m, wingspan: 8.9 m, height: 2.75 m, maximum speed: 200 km / h, climb speed: 9, 52 m / s, maximum ceiling 6000 m, armament: fixed - 2 LMG 08/15 machine guns, cal. 7.92 mm. 3_edu2135_instruction_sheet.pdf
