This ww1 plane was the first pusher fighter and ended the fokker scourge. A time where the germans had air superiority over the british by useing the first interupter gears in their planes. the DH.2 spawned 14 aces and was praised for its climbing abbility against other aircraft untill the newer german fighters came along.
