Product Description

Build a detailed scale replica of the historic Fokker C.Is reconnaissance aircraft with this 1:33 scale card model kit from Orel, No. 359.

The Fokker C.I was a two-seat, unequal-span biplane of mixed construction, developed by Fokker toward the end of the First World War. Originally intended for the German military, the aircraft was tested at Schwerin in 1918 under the designation U.38 before entering production. The type subsequently served in reconnaissance and training roles.

The Fokker C.Is represented a reconnaissance version of the aircraft, designed for observation duties with a crew of two. One of the more unusual features of the design was the arrangement of the fuel tank and streamlined fairing around the undercarriage area.

This Orel paper model reproduces the Fokker C.Is at an impressive 1:33 scale. The kit consists of 10 A4 sheets and offers a moderate level of detail, making it an enjoyable project for both developing card modellers and more experienced builders interested in WWI and early military aviation.
