The origin of the Fokker E.IV is linked to the idea of a fighter with more engine and fire power than the planes used at that time. The first prototype appeared in September 1915. with a 14 cylinder Oberursel U.III engine with a power of 160 HP. The basic armament was 3 Spandau machine guns that did not fire straight ahead - only at an angle of 15 degrees. The plane was mass-produced with only two machine guns due to problems between the timing of the shots and the rotation of the propellers. This machine was used by such pilots as: Oswald Boelcke, Max Immelmann, Kurt Wintgens and Otto Parschau, but the Fokker E.IV itself was not very successful at the front. This was due to the use of a massive Oberursel U.III engine not only very unreliable and complicated to operate, but also causing undesirable effects during the flight itself; for example, in order to make a sharp turn, it was necessary to practically stop the engine and enter a loss of altitude. The plane's good speed and firepower were lost due to an unreliable engine and poor maneuverability. At an altitude of 3000 m, the bike lost its strength and reaching a higher altitude became practically impossible. Only 49 machines of this type were produced and served at the front between April and August 1916. The historical importance of this model is only emphasized by the fact that it has become a flying laboratory for testing various types of machine guns. Technical data: Maximum speed: 170 km / h, speed of climb: 4.17 m / s, maximum ceiling 3960 m, maximum range: 240 km, armament: fixed - 2 Spandau machine gun cal.7.92 mm.
