1:144 Lloyd C.III
This is a 1:144 scale model of an Austro-Hungarian Lloyd C.III. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.
In August 1916 a Lloyd C.II with a 160hp Daimler engine was produced in the form of the Lloyd C.III. Eight were produced by Lloyd in the form of the Series 43, but another forty-four were produced by WKF in the form of the Series 43.5, which preceded it. The 43.5 series started appearing at the front in February 1916, and they served for a full year before being withdrawn from operational service.
The C.III was a popular machine on the Italian front, able to withstand severe weather, and a few were flown on the Romanian Front in 1917. However, the Lloyd C.III(WKF) was inferior to the contemporary Hansa-Brandenburg C.I, and Daimler engines were often pirated from C.IIIs and installed in Brandenburgs.
