Albatros B.II

Like the Albatros B.I, the Albatros B.II was a pre-war design with a tough plywood fuselage. The smaller B.II served from the beginning of the war until mid-1915, when the increasing prevalence of armed opponents forced the transition to armed C-class two-seaters. After its service at the front was finished, its excellent flying characteristics turned it into a first-class trainer, and in that capacity it continued through the end of the war. The B.IIa was a strengthened version that served in the trainer role.

The B.II was widely used on both the Western and Eastern fronts from 1914 through early 1916.

The Albatros B.I(Ph) was a modified Albatros B.II built by Phönix.
