------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Version of 4 July 1997 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --0--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10.20, Lohner Biplane fighter. The 10.20 had an unusually deep and short fuselage. In this form the aircraft showed unsufficient control even during taxying trials, and the fuselage was lengthened and the rudder surface increased before flight. Handling was still poor and the aircraft was modified again. The second prototype had a large dorsal fin and a different wing structure. Two built. Type: 10.20A Country: Austria-Hungary Function: fighter Year: 1916 Crew: 1 Engines: 1 * 185hp Austro-Daimler Wing Span: Length: Height: Wing Area: Empty Weight: Max.Weight: Speed: Ceiling: Range: Armament: 2*mg 20.14, Phoenix The Phonix 20.14 was developed from the {Hansa-Brandenburg D I} biplane fighter. It had a deeper forward fuselage, which eliminated the wing cabane. However, the cockpit was cut deep into the fuselage, so that the pilot had no view straight forward. Sesquiplane wings were fitted. It was abandoned in favour of the {20.15}, which had better performance. One built. Type: 20.14 Country: Austria-Hungary Function: fighter Year: 1917 Crew: 1 Engines: 1 * 185hp Austro-Daimler Wing Span: 8.60m Length: 6.30m Height: 2.73m Wing Area: 19.50m2 Empty Weight: 665kg Max.Weight: 920kg Speed: Ceiling: Range: Armament: 20.15, Phoenix This too was a development of the {Hansa-Brandenburg D I}, with a similar deep forward fuselage as the {20.14}. Performance was little improved, but handling was much better. One built. 20.16, Phoenix Yet another development of the {Hansa-Brandenburg D I}, again like the {20.14} with a deepened fuselage and sequiplane wings. Handling was not very good, and the prototype was modified with wings similar to that of the {20.15}. One built.

One built. 20.23, Phoenix Reengined {Phoenix D III}, powered by a 225hp Austro-Daimler engine. One built. 20.24, Phoenix Biplane fighter. The 20.24 was a new design ({the Phoenix D II} and {Phoenix D III} were developments of the {Phoenix D I}). It was an excellent aircraft, but did not enter production, because of the end of WWI. Type: 20.24 Country: Austria-Hungary Function: fighter Year: 1918 Crew: 1 Engines: 1 * 230hp Hiero Wing Span: 8.50m Length: 6.60m Height: 2.90m Wing Area: 23.50m2 Empty Weight: 665kg Max.Weight: 9*50kg Speed: 185km/h Ceiling: Range: Armament: 20.25, Phoenix Similar to the {20.24}, but with a 255hp Austro-Daimler engine. 20.28, Phoenix Prototype for the {Phoenix D IV}. 20.29, Phoenix Prototype for the {Phoenix D IV}. 30.14, Aviatik Single-seat biplane fighter, the first to be built by the Austrian Aviatik company. The prototype was lost on its first flight, but the {30.19}, {30.20} and {30.21} prototypes lead to the {Aviatik D I}.

The two upper wings were attached to the upper and lower parts of the fuselage, the lowest wing was attached to the landing gear. The two lower wings were cantilever. Only one was built. Type: 40.15 Country: Austria-Hungary Function: fighter Year: 1917 Crew: 1 Engines: 1 * 185hp Daimler Wing Span: 7.60m Length: 7.10m Height: 2.82m Wing Area: 22.20m2 Empty Weight: 900kg Max.Weight: Speed: Ceiling: Range: Armament: 40.16, Lloyd Biplane fighter. The upper wing was attached to the deep, rectangular fuselage in front of the cockpit; the lower wing was attached to it aft of the cockpit. Because of this heavy stagger, both wings were strutted to the fuselage, but not to each other. One built.

Despite its powerful engine, the 40.15 had unimpressive performance. It was heavy and unwieldy. Its configuration was considered outmoded in 1918. One built. Type: 50.14 Country: Austria-Hungary Function: fighter Year: 1918 Crew: 1 Engines: 1 * 200hp Austro-Daimler Wing Span: 8.40m Length: 6.40m Height: 2.98m Wing Area: 23.80m2 Empty Weight: Max.Weight: 970kg Speed: Ceiling: Range: Armament: 2*mg8mm 70.01, Knoller Single-seat biplane fighter, of wooden construction. The 70.01 was to some extent a 'variable geometry' aircraft: the flexible wing was designed to adapt itself to the speed of the aircraft. The development was abandoned at the end of WWI. Type: 70.01 Country: Austria-Hungary Function: fighter Year: 1917 Crew: 1 Engines: 1 * 230hp Hiero Wing Span: 8.00m Length: 6.35m Height: 2.85m Wing Area: Empty Weight: Max.Weight: Speed: 240km/h Ceiling: Range: Armament: 2*mg8mm 70.02, Knoller Development of the 70.01. Abandoned at the end of WWI. 80.05, W.K.F. Triplane fighter, of wooden construction with plywood fuselage skinning. The view from the cockpit was judged extremely poor, and the 80.05 was flown only a few times. One built. Type: 80.05 Country: Austria-Hungary Function: fighter Year: 1917 Crew: 1 Engines: 1 * 200hp Austro-Daimler Wing Span: 8.00m Length: 6.02m Height: 2.95m Wing Area: 22.49m2 Empty Weight: 670kg Max.Weight: 935kg Speed: 200km/h Ceiling: Range: 1.5hrs Armament: 2*mg8mm 80.06, W.K.F. The 80.06 had a fuselage similar to that of the 80.05, but was a biplane. The performance was good enough to result in production orders, but the programme was halted by the end of WWI. Two built, plus one {80.10} and a {80.12}.

The most notable feature of the D I was the 'Spider' arrangment of the wing struts; the four struts crossed at a point between the wings. The deep front fuselage inhibited the view of the pilot, and the D I was unstable. About 200 built.

It also had a conventional wing cabane, so that the pilot had a better forward view. The D I had excellent handling and was very sturdy, but it was not very fast. It remained in service to the end of WWI. 140 built.
