1:144 Albatros D.III(Oef) Series 53
This is a paintable 1:144 scale model of an Austro-Hungarian Albatros D.III Series 53 built by Oeffag (Oesterreichische Flugzeugfabrik AG). 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 Series 53.2 began with the basic German D.III design, but the wing and airframe were strengthened. This corrected one of the D.IIIs greatest weaknesses: failure and twisting of the lower wings, especially at their roots. The 185hp engine also gave the D.III more speed than its German counterpart.
