Fe 2 Vs Albatros I-iv

In the spring of 1916, the deployment of the RFC`s FE 2 helped wrest aerial dominance from Imperial Germany`s Fokker Eindecker monoplanes, and then contributed to retaining it. However, by autumn German reorganization saw the birth of the Jagdstaffeln and the arrival of the new Albatros D scout. Thus, for the remainder of 1916 and well into the next year an epic struggle for aerial superiority raged above the horrors of the Somme and Passchendaele battlefields, pitting the FE 2 against the better-armed and faster Albatros scouts.
