Design

The D.II was a single-seat biplane fighter with wings of unequal span and a plywood covered semi-monocoque fuselage as seen on the earlier D.10 prototype fighter. V struts connected the wings, and the fuselage occupied the gap between the wings. The pilot's cockpit was situated just behind the wing's trailing edge, with a small headrest behind it. The D.II also had a cross axle undercarriage.[2][1]
