Albatros J.I J.401/17 at Adlershof.The J.I used the wings and tail of the Albatros C.XII fitted to its armored fuselage. The fuselage behind the armor was wood like the Albatros C-types. The wireless antenna lead is hanging below the observer's cockpit. |

Albatros J.I J.401/17, the second production aircraft, is shown at Adlershof undergoing evaluation.The nose has a spinner and streamlined shape because there was no armor around the engine. The Albatros J.I was the only J-type without engine armor and was therefore the aircraft most vulnerable to ground-fire of all the J-types. |

Albatros J.I J.402/17, the third production aircraft, is shown after a bad landing in December 1917. The J.I used the wings and tail surfaces of the C.XII but the fuselage was far less elegant. Early aircraft had a propeller spinner; that was soon abandoned as unnecessary for such a slow aircraft. |

Albatros J.I J.415/17 with factory finish and Flieger-Abteilung (A) 238 unit markings. The early J.I aircraft used the wing and tailplane camouflage of the late Albatros C-types like the C.XII together with varnished wood rear fuselage and light-gray armor. Over this J.415/17 has black and white elevator stripes, white stripes over the upper wing, and a white field on the upper fuselage behind the gunner with a Roman numeral painted on it, in this case 'VI', which were the Flieger-Abteilung (A) 238 unit markings. |

Albatros J.I J.424/17 was the last aircraft of the first production batch. Here it has been repainted in 1918 insignia. Some of the engine cowling panels have been removed, possibly for maintenance, and it still retains its spinner. (Peter M. Grosz Collection/SDTB) |

Early production Albatros J.I with spinner, perhaps at Adlershof. Wind tunnel investigations eventually revealed that eliminating the spinner and rounding the nose actually reduced drag, and subsequent production J.I aircraft had no spinner. The same change was made to more well-known aircraft like the Rumpler C.IV and late-production Albatros D.III fighters built in Austria-Hungary. |

Albatros J.I J.706/17 is from the second production batch. In addition to the factory finish it carries a dark, probably black, zig-zag marking on the rear fuselage and tactical number '9'. The Albatros J.I was developed from the earlier Albatros C.XII by adding armor to the cockpit and replacing the 260 hp Mercedes D.IVa with the 200 hp Benz Bz.IV. The reduced power and great weight greatly reduced performance and flying qualities, but the airplanes depended on their armor for protection. Later two machine guns firing downward at 45° were fitted in addition to the observer's flexible guns. |

Albatros J.I J.714/17 of the second production batch after a bad landing. J.714/17 is in factory finish with no special markings. The light gray armor around the cockpit is notable and the door providing easier access for the pilot is hanging open. The tubular container under the starboard lower wing is interesting.

This Albatros J.I may be from the second production batch; it has no spinner but does not appear to have printed camouflage fabric. It has been painted overall dark camouflage colors, probably green and lilac like other Albatros two-seaters, with white nose, nose stripe, and letter 'L' probably at Flieger-Abteilung (A) 233 where it was serving when photographed. |

Albatros J.I 09.01 was formerly German Militar-Nummer J.400/17. Marta-built 250 hp Benz engines were installed. On 5 May 1918 Albatros J.I 09.01 was damaged at the front before seeing operations and returned to Aspern for repairs. It no longer has its 'as-built' propeller spinner.

Albatros J.I 09.03 was the last of three purchased by Austria-Hungary. Formerly J.730/17, 09.03 was the only J.I used operationally by the Luftfahrtruppe; it served with Flik 69/S between July and September 1918. The two-color camouflage painted on the upper surface of the wings and tailplane is evident below. |

Post-war the new Polish state used a number of German warplanes, including the Albatros J.I. As can be seen on its fin, this J.I, named Smok and with tactical number '6', wears the irregular camouflage pattern illustrated by the Japanese artist in color. |

Polish Albatros J.I tactical number '6', apparently before it was named. The photo above shows the irregular camouflage pattern on its fuselage. The photo below is too dark to show the pattern clearly but does show the printed camouflage fabric on the wings and horizontal tail surfaces. The serial, J.I 217/18, does not correspond to known serial numbers for the Albatros J.I. |

Closeup of an Albatros J.I radiator reveals that it was not armored. Together with its totally exposed location, that made it especially vulnerable to ground-fire. Engine failure could be expected two-three minutes after radiator puncture. Use of a box radiator instead of an airfoil radiator like that of the C.XII did nothing to improve performance of the J.I. |

Пушка Беккера устанавливалась на борту самолета на специальном кронштейне и предназначалась для обстрела наземных целей Some Albatros J.I aircraft mounted a 20mm Becker cannon on the left side of the aircraft for ground attack, and especially destroying tanks, as shown here. These experiments were successful enough to lead to development of improved cannon mounts for the Albatros J.II and AEG J.II, and eventually to more sophisticated anti-tank designs like the AEG G.IVk and Ago S.I. Decades later anti-tank helicopters were designed to fulfill the role pioneered by these little-known aircraft. |

By 1918 Allied tanks became a major problem for the German Army, and anti-tank weapons became more important. The 20mm Becker cannon was accordingly fitted to a number of Albatros J.Is on a simple mount on the side of the gunner's cockpit as shown here. A slightly different Becker cannon mount reinforced with a U-profile stiffener mounted on Albatros J.I. To facilitate handling in the slipstream, a grip was fitted to the ammunition clip. Two types of magazines were supplied one for 10 and one for 15 rounds. |
