The Taube design of Austrian Igo Etrich was manufactured by a variety of German companies, but none more widely than Rumpler, who built 134 pre-war Taubes, of which 73 were built in 1913. The Taube was a stable, safe machine, and while those characteristics are good in a trainer, they do not match the needs of the battlefield, and Taubes did not last long after the start of the war.
