FOKKER DR.I TRIPLANE  1/24

The Fokker Dr.I (Dreidecker, 'triplane' in German), often known simply as the Fokker Triplane, was a World War I fighter aircraft built by Fokker-Flugzeugwerke. The Dr.I saw widespread service in the spring of 1918. It became famous as the aircraft in which Manfred von Richthofen gained his last 17 victories (plus two earlier ones in the Fokker F.I prototype in September 1917), and in which he was killed on 21 April 1918. The Fokker Dr.I was flown with great success by many other German aces, most notably Josef Jacobs with 30 confirmed kills in the type.
