Description: Further DetailsTitle: Wings of Glory WWI: Nieuport 11 (De Turenne)Condition: NewDescription: The Nieuport 11 "Bebe" was a French single seat fighter aircraft. Reaching the front in early 1916, it outclassed its German opponent, the Fokker Eindecker. It ended the dominance of German aviation, known as the "Fokker Scourge," and gave air superiority to France during the battle of Verdun. The Nieuport 11 performed well in combat thanks to its excellent inherent speed, rate–of–climb, and agility. This successful airplane, however, had one limitation – its lack of a synchronized machine gun, which hampered its offensive capabilities.

Nieuport 11 (De Turenne) Armand de Turenne, a cavalryman before entering the French air force, proved himself a true "knight of the air," sharing his victories with no less than 15 other pilots. Nieuport 11 (Ancillotto) "Giannino" Ancillotto is part of Italian aviation history for his 11 victories, including three balloons shot down with his rocket–armed aircraft.Brand: Ares GamesType: Game PiecesItem Weight: 1.6 ouncesgAge Level: 13 years and upItem Length: 40mmItem Width: 20mmItem Height: 35mmOne 1/144 scale modelFlight stand with game stats4 altitude standsAirplane, Maneuver and Special cardsThis is not a complete game.
