+# Albatros D.II
+
+![albatrosd2](../images/planes/albatrosd2.png)
+
+## Description
+
+First in the pantheon of the legendary Albatros fighter planes, the D.II became a symbol and icon of the fighter plane in the Great War. Under the guidance of engineer Robert Thelen, the plane incorporated new features in design and development. While retaining the clean aerodynamic shape of the D.I model’s fuselage, new central N-shaped struts were added to the wings. The upper wing was moved closer to the fuselage, and early models of the aircraft were fitted with Windhoff box-type radiators on both sides of the fuselage.  
+The Albatros Werke, Ostdeutsche Albatros Werke, and Luft-Verkehrs-Gesellschaft mbH factories manufactured the aircraft. In all, 768 Albatros D.IIs were produced.  
+In August 1916, the first detachment of Albatros D.I and D. II fighters arrived at the front. Starting with these two models of aircraft, two Spandau machine guns became standard equipment for all German fighters. In the hands of experienced pilots, who were already battle hardened and experienced in aerobatics, the D.II made for huge gains in air superiority. The rapid mass production of Albatros fighter planes allowed Germany to maintain air superiority all the way through April 1917. "Bloody April" has become synonymous with the great losses of British aircraft in 1917.  
+The Albatros D. II was also employed against balloons and for providing cover for twin-seat bombers and scouts. Its pilots noted the good power of the twin machine guns, good forward and upward visibility, responsive handling, high speed and impressive rate of climb. The fighter participated in battles all along the Western Front.

 The Albatros D.Va was mainly used against enemy aircraft. Pilots noted great visibility, handling, sufficient speed and rate of climb. The new engine improved the aircraft’s high altitude flight characteristics. However, pilots had no confidence in the new low wing attachment and refused to perform steep dives in combat. Despite this, veteran pilots continued to increase their combat scores, and employing large numbers of the aircraft in sorties became more frequent. This model participated in battles on the Western Front and the Palestinian Front.
