| The Automobil und Aviatik AG of Leipzig-Heiterblick
licence-built the Halberstadt D.II as the Aviatik D.I -
later known as the Halberstadt D.II(Av) - before, in late
1916, developing and building an original single-seat
fighter as the D.II. Powered by the 160hp Daimler D III
six-cylinder water-cooled engine and carrying an armament
of two synchronised 7.92mm LM-G 08/15
machine guns, the D.II was a staggered single-bay
biplane with wooden, fabric-covered wings and a steeltube
(forward) and wood (aft) fuselage largely ply
covered. The Aviatik fighter did not find favour with the
Idflieg and further development was discontinued, only the one prototype
being built.
