AEG D.I

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The AEG D.I was a biplane fighter of World War I. Three prototypes were ordered, but after the first two were involved in serious crashes, development was cancelled. A triplane version was built as the AEG Dr.I.

The second and third prototypes are sometimes referred to as the D.II and D.III respectively.
