Roden 32 Albatros D.Va 1:72

RodenSKU: ROD00000032

Description

The first series production D.V fighters arrived at the front in May 1917. In the second half of 1917 another sub-modification - the D.Va - appeared. The major difference of this version was the absence of the headrest in response to pilots' complaints about the worsening of field of view to the rear. Also, the aileron control cables were now led through the lower wing. This fighter was considered already obsolete at the beginning of its service, but if flown by an experienced pilot it could be a very effective weapon. Only the production of the famous Fokker D.VII by the Albatros and OAW plants made the Albatros D.V/D.Va fade into the background. However, these aeroplanes still remained in service until the last days of the war.
