A three-winged [[World War I]] [[airplane]] patterned after the Sopwith Triplane. Used by the Germans, the Dreidecker was slow and prone to wing failure, but had impressive maneuverability. Probably the best-known Dr.I is the scarlet-painted machine of "Manfred von Richthofen":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manfred_von_Richthofen, who flew the type while attaining his last 19 victories. The Dr.I was armed with 2 7.92mm [[machine gun|machine guns]].
