TheFokker V.27 was a Germanparasol-monoplanefighter prototype designed by Reinhold Platz and built byFokker-Flugzeugwerke.
The V.27 was little more than an enlarged V.26 (prototype for theD.VIII) with a 145 kW (195 hp)Benz Bz.IIIb liquid-cooledinline engine. Once again, Fokker pursued similar aircraft with bothrotary and inline engines. Fokker submitted the V.27 at the second fighter competition atAdlershof in May/June 1918.
The V.37 was a ground-attack variant of the V.27. It was fitted with extensive armor plating to protect the pilot and engine. Neither the V.27 nor the V.37 were placed in production.
