The Fokker D.V (Fokker designation M.22) was a biplane fighter designed by the Fokker Aircraft Company (Fokker-Flugzeugwerke) during the First World War for the Imperial German Army's (Deutsches Heer) Imperial German Air Service (Luftstreitkräfte) and the Imperial German Navy's (Kaiserliche Marine) Naval Air Service (Marine-Fliegerabteilung). Developed from the Fokker D.II, the aircraft was designed as a fighter trainer in 1916, although it also saw service in the fighter role in rear areas.
