FlightLevel24 ALBATROS D.III O.A.W.

Designed and manufactured by Albatros Flugzeugwerke, the Albatros D.III was one of the most iconic fighter aircraft of World War I. Entering service in early 1917, it quickly became a dominant force in aerial combat. The D.III, an evolution of earlier Albatros models, combined speed, maneuverability, and firepower. It featured a streamlined wooden monocoque fuselage and was powered by a Mercedes D.III engine. Armed with twin synchronized 7.92mm Spandau machine guns, it provided superior offensive capabilities.

Many legendary German aces, including Manfred von Richthofen (the "Red Baron"), achieved great success flying the Albatros D.III. While eventually outclassed by newer Allied aircraft, it remained in frontline service well into 1918.

The Albatros D.III's elegant design and historic significance make it one of the most celebrated fighters of the Great War. We are proud to present a high-fidelity digital twin of this aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS), developed with real pilot input and extensive testing.
