L.F.G. Roland D.VIb

The LFG Roland D.VIb increased the power of the D.VIa by using the 200hp Benz Bz.IIIa engine. The D.VI featured a distinctive "clinker-built" fuselage of long wooden strips and sharp lines. Its performance was good but the unusual fuselage construction limited production. Visibility and maneuverability were above average. It saw limited use at the front lines (mostly in Jasta 23) but it also saw some use with the German Navy.
