This is a paintable 1:144 scale model of a Fokker D.IV. 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 D.IV was powered by the excellent 160hp Mercedes D.III inline engine and armed with a twin fixed machine guns. As the aeroplane was put through testing, several defects in workmanship and design were found, resulting in delays, modifications, and repeated tests. In fact, the defects in the D.IV caused a re-evaluation of all Fokker biplane products, resulting in the December removal from the front lines. The D.IV was never cleared for broad front-line use and it was relegated to home defense and training. Forty were built.

In Austria-Hungary, MAG received an order for 42 Fokker D.II(MAG) Series 04.5 in August 1916. This was a Fokker D.IV with minor changes and twin Schwarzlose guns and a 185 Daimler(MAG) engine. Shortages of guns and higher priorities kept the planes grounded until light testing in autumn 1917 on the Eastern Front and January 1918 on the Italian front, where it was quickly condemned as obsolete and removed from active duty.
