The Airco DH.2 was a single seat pusher biplane aircraft, operated as a fighter during WWI. It was the second pusher design by Geoffrey de Havilland, based n his earlier Airco DH.1. The DH.2 was the first effectively armed British fighter and enabled the Royal Fling Corps (RFC) to counter the Fokker Scroge that had given the Germans the advantage in the air in late 1915. Until the British developed an interrupter gear to match the German system, pushers such as the DH.2 carried the burden of fighting and escort duties.
