The Fokker D.II was a biplane fighter designed by the Fokker Aircraft Company (Fokker-Flugzeugwerke) during the First World War for the Imperial German Army's (Deutsches Heer) Imperial German Air Service (Fliegertruppen des deutschen Kaiserreiches) and the Imperial and Royal Aviation Troops (Kaiserliche und Königliche Luftfahrtruppen or K.u.K. Luftfahrtruppen) of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Two prototypes designated by the factory as the M.17 were built in different configurations before the third one was accepted for production as the D.II. The Imperial German Air Service purchased 181 D.IIs, excluding the prototypes.
