FOKKER D.VII

eduard A FEW WORDS... ...ON THE DESIGNER: The Fokker D.VII carries the name of the company that created it, and the company carries the name of its originator, Anthony Herman Gerard Fokker, a young Dutchman living in Germany. Fokker founded his first manufacturing facility in Germany as a twenty two year old in 1912. From 1913, it operated from Schwerin, and from the outbreak of the First World War, was a supplier of aircraft to the German air force. The name Fokker gained recognition in 1915 with the introduction of the 'E' fighters. The E.I, E.II and E.III, as the first types to featurea synchronized gun firing through the propeller arch, enabled the German air force to gain superiority over the Western Front, and for Fokker to attain one of his career highs. However, nothing lasts forever, and in those times, this fact was a harsh reality. The introduction by the Allies of types such as the Nieuport 11 and 17, the DH-2 and the Sopwith Pup, turned the tables in a relatively short period of time, and development of newer, heavier biplane fighters provided Fokker with no real success. The following year saw the rise of Albatros as the premier supplier of aircraft to the German air force, with Pfalz being solidly in second place. In June, 1916, Reinhold Platz became a major collaborator of Fokker. Platz was a gifted welder without any higher specialized engeneering training, but was equipped with great technical feel, and was able to successfully execute Fokker’s most labor intensive ideas. The collaborative effort between these two men would influence the course of aircraft design and forever elevated the name of Fokker to legend status. The type that propelled Fokker to the forefront of German aircraft development was the Dr.1 triplane, that in its red guise, was made eternally famous by the Red Barron, Manfred von Richthofen.

...ON THE MACHINE: The Fokker Dr.1 certainly achieved the status of legend, if not as a one sided success. The concentration of weight nearest to the centre of gravity gave the aircraft excellent maneuverability, but consequently also some unfriendly characteristics. Fokker's triplane gave the German pilots a very effective, if labour intensive, weapon. A series of crashes, attributed to the failure of the top wing, prevented the type from seeing wider service among German fighter squadrons. Despite this, the Fokker Dr.1 remained in the service of elite units, who demonstrated the fighter's ability to pave the road ahead. This road included a similar fuselage and tail layout, constructed of welded metal tube, and a thicker, self-supporting wing. This proved to be a good combination, made better by the marriage of an effective water cooled inline engine to produce the Fokker D.VII prototypes. Prototypes V11 and V18 built to this design philosophy, together with six another Fokker prototypes, dominated the first evaluation procedure carried out by Idflieg, inspectors representing the German Air Force, from January 21st to the 28th, 1918. According to the evaluation, the aircraft were deemed highperforming, but carrying some unwanted flying quirks. Prototype V11 was during the course of one night and morning (and according to other sources, the course of a weekend) extensively modified. The fuselage was reportedly lengthened by 40cm, and the tail surfaces were increased. It may well be true, but a comparison of photographs of the V11 prototype and series production aircraft raises doubts. In all probability, this is a rumour started after the fact, the source of which may well have been Anthony Fokker, and the actual aircraft may be a later prototype, possibly V11/II. In any case, the victor of the evaluation, and rightfully so, was Fokker, and from the winning prototype, after extensive modification, came the elegant and high performing Fokker D.VII.

...ON PRODUCTION:
Production of the Fokker D.VII was initiated in late spring, 1918. A production license was also obtained by Albatros, who manufactured the aircraft not only in its parent plant, but also at its production facility at OAW (Ostdeutche Albatros Werke). The three manufactured types showed some differences, such as the engine cowl. Changes were also introduced on the production line. An increasing cooling problem saw the addition of intakes and openings that improved airflow around the engine. Similar problems surrounding the ammunition containers led to modification of cooling systems. These Fokkers were produced with three different engines, the Mercedes D.III (output of 160k), the Mercedes D.IIIa (175k), and the BMW IIIa (185k). Aircraft equipped with the BMW powerplant were designated by Fokker as the Fokker D.VIIF, while the other two weren't differentiated by designation. For this reason, identification of the BMW types is difficult. One telling characteristic is that the guns on the BMW types were placed noticeably higher, while the guns on the Mercedes powered units were practically mounted on the top surface of the fuselage. In all, there were 2800 Fokker D.VIIs produced in all versions.

...ON THE WAR:
The greatest pilot of the First World War, Manfred von Richthofen, who contributed greatly to the sucess of Fokker, did not see the introduction of the D.VII. He was killed in action on April 21st, 1918. No one on the Allied side at that time could foresee the coming of a fighter that would, through its quality and mass production, take aerial warfare to another level. A re-equipping to the type by front line units, Jastas (Jasta = JAgdSTAffel, Squadron), and a corresponding modification of tactics, significantly raised the combat quality of these units. The concept that, through the second half of 1918, the German Air Force suffered from low quality, low morale, and a lack of decent equipment, is erroneous. Morale actually remained high in the air units, and the service was given a fighter that was as good as any it ever fielded to that time. Because the Allied side never sat back with its own development, and increased its own combat capabilities, the second half of 1918 became the bloodiest timeframe of the First World War. It was during this time that a large number of German pilots gained their greatest success, typically flying the Fokker D.VII.
...ON THE COMPETITION:
The Allied air forces attempt to maintain air supremacy over the Western Front in the spring of 1918 was, with the introduction of the Fokker D.VII, given something to seriously think about. This was an aircraft that canceled the long lasting Allied advantage in the air. However, the D.VII did not better Allied types in all respects. The Sopwith Camel could outturn the Fokker, and the SPAD XIII and Se 5a were typically faster, especially where the Mercedes D.IIIa powered D.VIIs were concerned. The climb rate of these same-powered D.VIIs were not better than the climb rate of the Allied types. The BMW powered aircraft had better performance, but the engines were in constant short supply. So, what was it that propelled the Fokker D.VII to its legendary status? It was a combination of a balance of its performance and flight characteristics, ease of handling, and simple and reliable construction that was also very robust. German pilots, with the D.VII, were given a weapon that could be counted on, and relied upon, to perform up to its standard when called upon.
British SE 5a, powered by Wolseley W.4A Viper 200 hp engine, max.speed 222 km/h
French SPAD XIII, powered by Hispano Suiza 8BEc 235 hp engine, max. speed 220 km/h. USAAC also acquired these aircraft.
British Sopwith Camel, with Clerget 9B 130 hp engine, max. speed 185 km/h.
...AND ON THE MODEL:
This box contains three complete kits of the Fokker D.VII in 1/48th scale. Each one represents the aircraft produced by one of the three manufacturers that produced the Fokker D.VII in 1918: Fokker, Albatros and OAW. Each of the kits contains two versions of the fuselage, which, with the Fokker and Albatros produced aircraft, represents early and late production versions, and with the OAW type, two of the late versions. There are four marking options for each of the manufacturer's aircraft, two for each production version, in the box. Four complete sets of lozenge decals are also included, as well as three sets of color photoetched details. Please note, that the model can be built without the brass, and this decision is up to you and your modeling techniques. Pay close attention to the instruction sheet during assembly, in particular as it pertains to the application of coloring, and the lozenge decals. The kit also includes a 1/48th scale resin kit of the German WW I mobile refueling station. As a special bonus, this kit contains a 1:1 scale replica of the highest Prussian decoration, the order of Pour le Mérite. During WW I, some 80 German airmen were awarded this legendary order. We sincerely wish you some pleasant modeling hours with the construction of your Fokker D.VIIs.

A-Fokker D.VII (O.A.W.) Jasta 6 was re-equipped with early Fokker D.VIIs in May 1918, and then, in the summer, with the new Fokker E.V parasols. After their grounding due to a series of fatal failures, Jagfliegers obtained new Fokker D.VIIs (OAW) off production block 4500, the so called mid production version. These aircraft immediately received the unit’s black and white striped marking on the nose, tail and wheel disks. In this aircraft, Lt. Schliewen was photographed when he reached the unit in August after his aerial training with Jastaschule I. He reached both of his two WW I victories with Jasta 6. H11 62

B-Fokker D.VII (O.A.W.) Jasta 19 commander, Lt. Oliver von Beaulieu-Marconnay, was killed in action and superceded by Ltn i d R Wilhelm Leusch in October 1918. He led Jasta 19 until the end of the war, while the unit was based in Trier. Leush personalized his aircraft with beautifully depicted dragon fuselage art. The overall paint scheme is typical of Jasta 19 markings, when the yellow nose was representative, while the blue fuselage was the Jagdgeschwader II marking. Jagdgeswader II units were Jasta 12 with a white nose, Jasta 13 with a green nose, Jasta 15 with a red nose and the already noted yellow nose of Jasta 19. H70 60

Po smrti velitele Jasta 19, Olivera von Beaulieu-Marconnay, pøevzal v øíjnu 1918 velení jednotky Ltn d R Wilhelm Leusch. Jastì 19 velel až do konce války, který ji zastihl na letišti v Trieru. Svùj stroj si Leusch (5 vítìzství) ozdobil krásnou kresbou draka. Zbarvení stroje je jinak typické pro Jasta 19 – modrý trup byl znakem pøíslušnosti k Jagdgeswader Nr II, žlutá pøíï pak k Jasta 19. Souèástí JG II byly ještì Jasta 12 (bílá pøíï), Jasta 13 (zelená pøíï) a Jasta 15 (èervená pøíï). H11 62

C-Fokker D.VII (O.A.W.) The Jasta 37 unit marking was black and white striped horizontal tail, as this unknown pilot´s aircraft illustrates. At the time when Jasta 37 was equipped with the Fokker DVII, it was led by its top ace, Ltn. Georg Mayer. He acquired command of the unit in April, 1918, when he came from Jasta 7. He had four aerial victories to his credit at that time, and while leading Jasta 37 he achieved a further twenty for a total of 24 victories. Jasta 37 reached 74 victories during one and half years of its existence, paying with 15 lost pilots.

D-Fokker D.VII (O.A.W.) During the defensive battles of September 1918, German pilots were able to inflict heavy damage on enemy air forces with relatively small looses. For example, on September 14th, German fighters shot down 58 enemy aircraft and balloons, while they paid with two wounded and two captured pilots. One of the day’s captives was a Jasta 13 novice pilot, Ltn Paul Wolf, who was forced to land on a US troop occupied airfield at Colombey les Belles.

Napøíklad 14. 9. 1918 sundali nìmeètí stíhaèi z oblohy dolù 58 letadel a balónù. To vše za cenu dvou zajatých a dvou zranìných pilotù.

E - Fokker D.VII (Fok.) The first unit, receiving the new Fokker D.VII in late April/early May, 1918, was JASTA 10 of the elite Jagdgeschwader 1. Ltn. Friedrich Friedrichs was one of the unit´s aces. He came to Jasta 10 in January, 1918, after a half year service with FAA 264. Here, he achieved his first aerial victory in March, increasing his combat score to 21, including 11 balloons. The balloon hunts would be the vehicle with which he would meet his destiny on July 15th, when the ammunition storage exploded in his Fokker. Friedrichs left the aircraft, but his parachute snagged the falling aircraft tail unit. The parachute was torn off the harness and Friedrichs was killed.

První jednotkou, která na pøelomu dubna a kvìtna 1918 obdržela Fokkery D.VII byla Jasta 10, souèást elitní JG I. Jedním z es této jednotky byl Ltn. Friedrich „Fritz“ Friedrichs. K Jasta 10 byl zaøazen v lednu 1918, po pùl roce služby u FAA 264. V bøeznu 1918 dosáhl svého prvního sestøelu a bìhem ètyø mìsícù zvýšil své skóre na 21, z toho 11 balónù. Jejich lov se mu však stal osudným, když se mu 15.èervence 1918 za letu vznítila munice. Friedrichs z hoøícího stroje vyskoèil, avšak padák se zachytil do ocasních ploch padajícího stroje. Následkem toho se padák odtrhl od pilotova postroje a Friedrichs zahynul.

F- Fokker D.VII (Fok.) Jasta 2 ’Boelcke‘ was, with a tally of 336 victories, the second most successful unit of the German air force during the First World War. Under the leadership of its first commander Oswald Boelcke, the fighter unit became what we know it to be today. Within the unit served such notables as Richtofen, Voss, Frommherz, Baumer and Bolle. It was Bolle that commanded the unit in 1918 at a time when the Fokker D.VII made up the fighter inventory. That he led the squadron in exemplary fashion is evident from the fact that with Jasta Boelcke, he gained 31 of his 36 victories, sixteen of them on the Fokker D.VII. One of his currently unkown subordinates flew the Fokker in this scheme. H11 H302 62 302

Jasta 2 „Boelcke“ byla s 336 vítìzstvími druhou nejúspìšnìjší jednotkou nìmeckého letectva v první svìtové válce. Pod vedením svého prvního velitele Oswalda Boelckeho stála u zrodu stíhacího letectva ve formì, v jaké ho známe dodnes. Sloužila u ní taková esa jako Richhofen, Voss, Frommherz, Bäumer nebo Bolle. Právì Karl Bolle vedl jednotku v roce 1918, tedy v dobì, kdy byla vybavena Fokkery D.VII. O tom, že ji vedl pøíkladnì, svìdèí i to, že u Jasta Boelcke zíkal 31 ze svých 36 vítìzství, z toho 16 na Fokkerech D.VII. Jeden z jeho dnes neznámých podøízených bojoval na Fokkeru ve zde nabízeném zbarvení.

G- Fokker D.VII (Fok.) This aircraft is often assigned to Ltn. Hugo Schäfer of Jasta 15 (a unit of Jagdgeschwader II), which is the reason why the nose color is shown in Jasta 15´s red. Hugo Schärfer attained a total of 11 aerial victories while serving with Jasta 15. He was also shot down by an SE-5 (probably 24th Squadron, RAF) in July, 1918, but safely landed with a siezed engine on the German side. The latest research shows the aircraft was most probably passed on to the other Jagdgeschwader II unit, Jasta 19. The red nose was over painted with Jasta´s 19 yellow. It is assumed the aircraft was captured with this marking on October 27th, 1918, when Capt.E.V.Rickenbaker shot down Ltn.Max Kliefoth. H15 65

Ltn. Hugo Schäfer
Jasta 15
Tento stroj bývá èasto pøipisován Leutnantu Hugo Schäferovi, pøíslušníku Jasta 15. Proto je barva pøídì udávána jako èervená. Hugo Schäfer dosáhl celkem 11 vítìzství, všechny u Jasta 15. Byl také v èervenci 1918 sestøelen letouny SE5, pravdìpodobnì od 24. sq RAF, ale bezpeènì pøistál se zastaveným motorem na nìmecké stranì zákopù. Poslední výzkumy ukazují, že jeho letoun byl nejspíše od Jasta 15 pøedán k jiné jednotce v rámci JGII – k Jasta 19. Zde prodìlal zmìnu zbarvení, kdy èervenou barvu pøídì Jasta 15 nahradila žlutá barva nové staffel. A pravdìpodobnì v této podobì padl do rukou spojeneckých vojákù, když v nìm byl 27. 10. 1918 Capt E. V. Rickenbackerem sestøelen a zajat Ltn. Max Kliefoth.

H- Fokker D.VII (Fok.) After the armistice, Jasta Boelcke was ordered to pass its Fokker D.VIIs on to the British. This unknown pilot´s aircraft was among such committed aircraft. The photo of the aircraft with RAF members was taken at Neuville. Many German WW I pilots later served with the Luftwaffe during WW II, mainly as staff officers and commanders, and many of them saw aerial battles again. This applies to the likes of former Jasta Boelcke member, Alfred Lindenberger. He achieved 12 victories during WW I, in this number 9 with Jasta Boelcke. He got acquired another four in mid 1944, when he led II/JG300. His victims were one P-51, one B-17, with his tally being complete on December 17th, 1944, when he shot down two B-24 Liberators over Prostejov in occupied Czechoslovakia. H302 7 302

Po nìmecké kapitulaci obdržela Jasta Boelcke rozkazy k pøedání svých Fokkerù D.VII Britùm. Mezi odevzdanými stroji byl i tento letoun neznámého pilota jednotky, pøed kterým se v Neuville nechali vyfotit pøíslušníci RAF. Mnoho letcù nìmeckého letectva z první svìtové války se pozdìji stalo pøíslušníky Luftwaffe. Vìtšinou sloužili na štábních a velitelských funkcích, ale nìkteøí bìhem druhé svìtové války bojovì létali. Jedním z nich byl i Alfred Lindenberger, bývalý pøíslušník Jasta Boelcke. Za první svìtové války získal 12 vítìzství, z toho 9 u Jasta Boelcke. K nim pak v druhé polovinì roku 1944 pøidal jako velitel II/JG300 další ètyøi - P-51, B-17 a svùj úèet uzavøel 17.12.1944 nad Prostìjovem dvìma Liberatory.

J-Fokker D.VII (Albatros) In June 1918, Jasta 43 had a mixture of Fokker D.VIIs, and Albatros D.III and D.Vs. In an attempt to unify the equipment, a couple of former Jasta 18 Fokker D.VIIs from Albatros production lines were supplied. These aircraft bear the original Jasta 18 marking, including the raven badge on the fuselage. This aircraft was flown by Leutnant in der Reserve (Ltn d R) Josef Keller. He joined Jasta 43 on June 5th, 1918, and he got his first and only victory shooting down a SE5a near Bray-sur-Somme. His combat career ended on October 11, 1918, when he was seriously wounded during an aerial accident. H3 3 44

V èervnu používala Jasta 43 jako svoji výzbroj Fokkery D.VII, Albatrosy D.III a V. Pro sjednocení výzbroje dostala pozdìji nìkolik Fokkerù D.VII (Alb), døíve používaných Jastou 18. U nové jednotky si stroje ponechaly své pùvodní zbarvení, vèetnì symbolu havrana na trupu. S tímto strojem létal u Jasta 43 Leutnant in der Reserve Josef Keller. K jednotce nastoupil 5. èervna 1918 a odpoledne 8.8.1918 dosáhl svého prvního a jediného vítìzství, když u Braysur-Somme poslal k zemi SE5a. Jeho váleènou kariéru ukonèila 11. øíjna 1918 havárie, pøi které utrpìl vážná zranìní. E13

L- Fokker D.VII (Albatros) Oberleutnant Robert Ritter von Greim reached his first aerial victory in October 1915 while serving as an observer with FA 3b. He graduated as a pilot after pilot training, serving with FA 46b. In April 1917, he joined Bavarian Jasta 34b, and became the unit commander in June, 1917. He led the unit until end of the war, with pauses when he commanded the superior units of Jagdgruppe 9 and Jagdgruppe 10 (Jasta 34b was a part of these higher units, which were similar to a wing). Greim claimed a total 28 victories and he was awarded the Pour le Mérite on October 8th, 1918. He continued with his aerial career after WW I, as a consultant to the Chinese Air Force. Later, in the mid thirties, he led Jagdgeschwader Richthofen. His wife was the famous German female pilot Hanna Reitch. He was a believer in Nazism, and in late April, 1945, he was designated personally by Adolf Hitler in the Reichstag bunker as the last Luftwaffe supreme commander.

During the development of this model, and of the decals and camouflage schemes, we found the publication Windsock: Fokker D.VII ANTHOLOGY to be absolutely essential. For further research into this aircraft, as well as detailed technical write-ups, we cannot recommend this publication high enough.
Pøi konstrukci tohoto modelu, jakož i pøi pøípravì obtiskù a kamuflážních schémat , nám byli velkou pomocí vynikající publikace WINDSOCK:Fokker D.VII ANTHOLOGY.Pro dokonalé seznámení s barvitou historií tohoto letadla,stejnì jako pro studium zajímavých technických detailù,Vám tyto publikace vøele doporuèujeme. 40
