After almost two years we’ve got back in stock a model kit of the Fokker E.V/D.VIII - a German fighter from the Great War period, which also went down in the history of Polish aviation.

The Fokker model kit in the Expert Set includes plastic parts, photo-etched details, and two excellent decal sheets printed by Techmod - one with individual and national markings for two Polish and two German aeroplanes, and the other with "lozenge" - a German fabric printed in multi-coloured polygons, invented during World War I to make serial production of airplanes cheaper and easier, by eliminating the need for painting.

The Fokker E.V is a fighter from the factory of Antony Fokker, a Dutch industrialist known for its innovativeness, who worked during World War I for the Germans. Fokker introduced such ground breaking designs as the E.III - the world’s first "real" fighter, armed with a forward-firing synchronized machine gun; triplane Dr.I, flown by the "Red Baron" Manfred von Richthofen, and probably the finest fighter of the Great War, the Fokker D.VII. Fokker E.V was a beautiful plane and was respected by its opponents, who called it a "Fokker’s Razor."
