Tape (maybe not original), came from very good collection, so should be new.
The Fokker Dr.1 triplane was a World War I fighter aircraft designed by German engineer Anton Fokker in 1917. It was developed as a response to the success of Allied triplanes such as the Sopwith Triplane, which had superior climb and maneuverability. The Dr.1s distinctive triplane configuration was intended to provide increased lift and improved agility.
Despite its reputation as a fearsome opponent, the Dr.1 was plagued by mechanical problems and limitations in its armament and speed. It was flown by several German aces, including Manfred von Richthofen, also known as the “Red Baron,” who was killed in action while flying a Dr.I in 1918.
The Dr.1 remained in service until the end of the war and was responsible for shooting down numerous Allied aircraft. It became an icon of aviation history and continues to be celebrated as a symbol of the bravery and skill of the pilots who flew it.
