		The Fokker D.VIII (also E.V) was a late World War I parasol-monoplane fighter aircraft designed by Anton Fokker Rheinhold Platz at the Fokker company.
		Fokker and Platz had been working on a series of experimental planes starting in 1916, all based on a cantilever structure instead of external bracing in order to reduce drag.
		Fokker was just as interested in it, as it was perhaps the only new design that still used the Oberursel engine, a factory he had purchased in 1916.

		Fokker himself made several changes to the design in order to improve handling, notably increasing the length of the rear fuselage and increasing the size of the vertical stabilizer.
		Fokker's factory was not up to the task of supplying the entire air force, so their rivals at Albatros and AEG were brought in to start construction as well.
		Fokker rarely used plans for their designs, preferring to tinker until it worked, and so they simply sent a completed D.VII to Albatros to copy.

		Improving upon the French invention of the so-called 'deflector gear', which enabled fighter pilots to use machine guns to fire through aircraft propeller blades, Anton Fokker devised the much-improved interrupter gear in 1915.
		Fokker's new device was unveiled on 1 July 1915 on the EI Eindecker.
		Fokker's theories - which had in fact been pre-dated by early French research (among others) in 1914 - were subsequently implemented by each of the warring powers once its efficacy became apparent and such devices (in various modified forms) became standard within each air service.

		Anton Fokker's (1890-1939) name is inextricably linked with the series of aircraft he designed and which, employed by the Germans during World War One, came to personify the era of aerial 'dogfights'.
		Fokker's company also invented the so-called 'interrupter gear' that made it possible for a machine gun to fire through the aircraft's propeller blades.
		Fokker's development of the interrupter gear pre-empted French efforts led by Roland Garros along similar lines (the French however had concentrated upon the development of deflector blades).

		Fokker had offered his services to the Allied powers at the start of the war, but was turned down.
		As Fokker himself related: The technical problem was to shoot between the propeller blades, which passed a given point 2400 times a minute, because the two-bladed propeller revolved 1200 times a minute.
		Fokker had actually designed it by copying the French Morane-Saulnier plane, but the French plane was still much better.

		Dubbed the Flying Razor by Allied pilots, it had the distinction of scoring the last aerial victory of the war, but was otherwise better known for three lethal accidents due to wing failures.
		In both contests the Fokker designs had only barely beaten out competition from Siemens-Schuckert, and in this case the Siemens-Schuckert D.IV with a complex twin-row geared rotary engine was put into production as well.
		It transpired that the wing's center of flexure lay too far behind the center of pressure which allowed a dangerous aeroelastic phenomenon, divergence, to occur.
