Albatros C.X
The Albatros C.X followed the C.VII into service during 1917.
With the larger 260 HP engine, it had considerably larger proportions.
The fuselage was wider and deeper and longer. The additional space permitted the installation of oxygen
breathing equipment in the forward cockpit and radio apparatus in the rear cockpit.
The wing structure was altered radically and was of noticeably greater span and area.
To maintain lateral control despite the increased wingspan, ailerons were provided at all four wingtips.
An aerofoil-type radiator was used and mounted in the root of the starboard upper wing panel.
The Albatros C.X was used mainly on reconnaissance and artillery work with great success.
By October 1917, some 300 of the type were serving at the Front.
