The Albatros D.XII was a German single-seat fighter biplane first flown in March 1918. It was the last of the Albatros fighters completed and flown before the end of World War I and had the same slab-sided fuselage seen on the Albatros D.X.The first example of the D.XII used a 134 kW (180 hp) Mercedes D.IIIa engine and had balanced parallel-chord ailerons. The second built in April 1918 featured unbalanced inversely tapered ailerons and Bohme undercarriage with pneumatic shock absorbers.
