RODEN 003 PFALZ D.III (GERMAN WWI SINGLE-ENGINE Bi-PLANE FIGHTER) 1/72 SCALE
DESCRIPTION:
The Pfalz Flugzeugwerke GmbH, Speyer am Rhein company was founded in 1913 by Eversbusch brothers. At the end of the same year the company received consent from the Societe Anonyme des Airoplanes Morane Saulnier for completing the Morane L (Parasol), and the Morane H planes, which came in to the war Later as the Pfalz A.I and the Pfalz E.I-E.V respectively.
In early 1917 ingenieur Rudolf Gehringer who had earlier worked in Freiedrichshafen, joined the Pfalz Company. In April, Pfalz received an order for 100 license-built Roland D.II fighters. Gehringer studied the major shortcomings of Roland D.II and developed his own project, which later received the designation Pfalz D.III.
The new fighter showed good performance on test flights, and Pfalz proposed to build 70 planes under the limits of the contract with Roland. At this time the Roland D.IIa was obsolete and the Idflieg agreed to accept the D.III from the Pfalz Company.
