Some of the small Baltic countries maybe, they have this type in the order of battle in 1940.

The Germans removed a number of Fokker aircraft from Denmark. I believe that it was D VII and used them on the eastern front.

[focusfocus]

really,you think that it was an ex denmark plane employed in operations in the east?? and for make why ?? it was a plane of 1917!!! and I do not think that the germans captured in 1940 that sort of planes.

Denmark has in its operational use Fokker D. XXI fighter. As trainer few Fokker D.VII was kept in service but not in Denmark. I am wonder how the air claim like this could be happen?

Might have been a latter Fokker,Fokker CV or other type.
If it was those WW2 guns left nothing but parts I would think.

If any of the Fokker D.VII was captured, they are catch by Soviets.

More probably, just another misidentified training biplane.
