The Fokker Eindecker was a German World War I era single seat, radial engine monoplane fighter introduced into aerial combat over the Western Front in July 1915.  The Eindecker was designed by Dutch aeronautical engineer Anthony Fokker and was based on an un-armed A.III reconnaissance aircraft.  A total of just over 400 Eindecker fighters across five variants were manufactured before production ceased.  Of note is the fact that all Eindecker's incorporated one or more synchronized machine guns that could safely fire through the rotating propeller.  The five Eindecker variants produced are as follows: 1) M 5 K/MG (A.III); 2) E I; 3) E II; 4) E III and 5) E IV.  The definitive Eindecker variant was the E III, which granted the German Air Service local air superiority over most Allied fighters from Mid-1915 through early 1916.  Two of the most famous Eindecker aces were Oswald Boelcke and Max Immelmann who scored 19 and 15 victories respectively flying the various variants respectively.  By mid 1916, the Eindecker was considered obsolete and was largely withdrawn from frontline service.  The Eindecker E-III was powered by a 99 horsepower radial engine, which gave the aircraft a top speed of about 85 mph.  This older Fokker Eindecker E-III scaled model includes the following features: 1) Authentic World War I era markings; 2) Detailed landing gear; 3) Molded in tan colored plastic; 4) Seated pilot figure; 5) Simulated fabric covering; 6) Spinning propeller and 7) Illustrated assembly instructions.  This "bagged" kit has a tear in the upper left side of the plastic bag and header card.  Never started and 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions inventoried.
