History

The Albatros D.V was intended to be an improvement upon the successful D.III. Unfortunately, despite the more powerful engine, the increased airframe weight meant that the performance gain over the D.III was marginal at best. Still, such was the desperate situation confronting the Luftstreitkräfte that the D.V was accepted for mass production and rushed into service. In the hands of a competent pilot, it made a good enough accounting of itself, and it lasted in service right up until the last day of the war.
