This is a paintable 1:144 scale model of a Fokker E.I. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.

The Fokker Eindeckers were not famous for their flying qualities, they were made famous by the first synchronized gun deployed on a fighter and by the new combat tactics that innovation allowed. The E.III was by far the most numerous type, with 249 to 282 of them built and accepted of the 415 overall. Fokker E.I's first arrived at the front in July 1915 and were followed by E.IIs and E.III's in August. They had an immediate impact, both in valuable fighter training for many German pilots and on the enemy air corps, whose pilots complained they were "Fokker Fodder". By mid-1916 the Eindeckers had met their match in planes like the Nieuport 11, DH2, and FE2b, but fortunately for the German pilots there were intermediate replacements like the Halberstadts before the arrival of the game-changing Albatros D.I-D.III.

In comparison to the most common variety, the Fokker E.III, the Fokker E.I has a taller undercarriage and control pylons, an extended starboard cowl cheek for the cylindrical ammo canister, and it lacks the wing compass.
