Resumen

Descripción

Developed in 1915, the DH-2 biplane was one of the first effective British fighters of World War One. Designed by Geoffrey de Havilland, the DH-2 was a response to the arrival of the Fokker Eindecker appearing over the Western Front. One of the first true fighters, the Eindecker began the "Fokker Scourge" which saw the Germans gain a decisive aerial advantage over the aging British and French aircraft.

A pusher biplane, the DH-2 featured a forward-firing .30 caliber Lewis machine gun mounted in the cockpit. Together with the Nieuport 11, the DH-2 was decisive in regaining Allied air superiority in the early months of 1916. In the stunning rate of generational aircraft development that marked the First World War, the DH-2 was eclipsed later that year by the next generation of German aircraft and was gradually withdrawn from frontline service.

The Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre is an aviation museum located at the Omaka Air Field, 5 km (3 mi) from the centre of Blenheim, New Zealand.
