The German Fokker E.V was a parasol-monoplane fighter aircraft, designed by Reinhold Platz. It entered into service with the Luftstreitkräfte in the last few months of World War I, yet after several fatal accidents due to wing failures, the E.V. was modified and re-designated as the Fokker D.VIII.

Dubbed the Flying Razor by Allied pilots, the D.VIII had the distinction of scoring the last aerial victory of the war.

This is a detailed, illustrated review of both aircraft, covering all modifications and includes colour artwork profiles and a decal sheet in three scales: 1:72, 1:48 and 1:32.
