The Siemens-Schuckert D.IV was a late-World War I fighter aircraft from Siemens-Schuckert. It reached service too late and was produced in too few numbers to have any effect on the war effort. During August of 1918, the Siemens Schuckert D.IV started to appear with front line units. It was officially described as being “superior by far to all single-seaters in use” and was regarded to be the best performing fighter of the Great War. Despite its qualities the type saw little conflict as the following month saw the armistice signed and the War came to an end
