Fokker D VII

From its introduction in early 1918 the Fokker D-VII proved itself superior to the allied fighters. The D-VII was generally regarded as the best fighter plane on either side in WWI, in fact the Fokker was so highly regarded that the Armistice required that all remaining aircraft be turned over to the Allies. Its greatest attribute was its ability to "hang on the prop". Like all the Rough and Ready Aviation WWI fighters you won't have to "hang on the prop" because you will be able to climb straight up!
