History of Fokker Dr. I Triplane: The Red Baron

The Fokker Dr. I was a German fighter plane from the first World War. It was made famous by the end of 1917, both the plane but also its even more famous pilot, the legendary German pilot Manfred von Richthofen, The Red Baron.

The Fokker Dr. I is an airplane that conquered numerous victories for the German side. In that same year, most of the major aviation factories attempted to create their own triple-deck fighters. It was a Dutchman, Anthony Fokker, who finally created the triplane that would become the nightmare of the Allies.

The allies most accomplished rival was the British biplane the Sopwith Camel, which was regularly out manoeuvred by the Fokker and The Red Baron.
