Manfred von Richthofen, famously known as the “Red Baron,” was a German fighter pilot during World War I. Born on May 2, 1892, in Kleinburg, Germany, he became renowned for his exceptional skills and strategic prowess in aerial combat. Richthofen is credited with downing 80 enemy aircraft, making him the top ace of the war.
He achieved this remarkable feat while flying various models of the Fokker Eindecker and later the Fokker Dr.I triplane, which was painted bright red, earning him his iconic nickname. Richthofen’s leadership and tactical acumen made him a respected figure among his peers, and his daring exploits made him a legend in aviation history.
Tragically, he was killed in action on April 21, 1918, at the age of 25, but his legacy as one of the greatest fighter pilots of all time endures.
