This plane was built from parts from at least 5 Nieuport 28s sometime between 1918 and the early 20s. It was restored and painted as a U.S. Air Service plane flown by the 94th Aero Squadron during World War 1. The Nieuport 28 was the very first aircraft ever used by the United States military in a fighter role.
