D.II
Type Fighter
Manufacturer Fokker

The Fokker D.II was a German fighter biplane of World War I. It was a single seat fighter aircraft developed before the Fokker D.I. It was based on the M.17 prototype, with single-bay unstaggered wings and a larger fuselage and shorter span than production D.IIs. Using a 100 hp Oberursel, the D.II was underpowered, though the single 7.92 mm machine gun was normal for 1916. The German Army purchased 177.
