The Fokker Dr.I was a triplane fighter aircraft that was used by Germany during World War I. It was designed by Anthony Fokker and Reinhold Platz, who were inspired by the British Sopwith Triplane. The Fokker Dr.I had three short wings that gave it high maneuverability and low wing loading, but also reduced its speed and climb rate. The Fokker Dr.I was powered by a rotary engine that produced 110 horsepower.
It was armed with two fixed machine guns that fired through the propeller using a synchronization gear. The Fokker Dr.I became famous as the aircraft of the Red Baron, Manfred von Richthofen, who scored his last 19 victories in it before he was killed on April 21, 1918. The Fokker Dr.I was produced in limited numbers and was withdrawn from service in the summer of 1918 due to structural problems and the arrival of more advanced fighters.
