About product

Roden Albatros D.III Oeffag s.153 (early) 1:72

This injection-molded plastic kit from the Ukrainian company Roden captures the Austro-Hungarian license-built version of the Albatros D.III from the manufacturer Oeffag, specifically the early series 153, in 1:72 scale. The set is meant to be glued and painted and holds decals for period color schemes.

The real subject

The Oeffag company built the Albatros D.III under license for the Austro-Hungarian air service. The series 153 used a more powerful Austro-Daimler engine of around 200 horsepower. Apart from the stronger engine the early machines of the series 153 were practically identical to the previous series 53 and carried a propeller spinner.

Building and painting tips

Separate the parts with a sharp knife, clean them up and glue them with a thin cement for plastic. We recommend a primer and an airbrush. For a convincing look, pay attention to the bracing wires and to the correct shape of the nose section with the spinner.

Who the model is for

  • Anyone interested in Austro-Hungarian aviation of the First World War
  • Modelers collecting variants of the Albatros D.III
  • More experienced builders used to bracing wires
  • Collectors of fighter biplanes in 1:72 scale

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
