Overview
The AEG C.III was a prototype two-seat biplane reconnaissance aircraft built by the Allgemeine Elektricitäts-Gesellschaft (AEG) during the First World War for the Imperial German Army's Imperial German Air Service. It was derived from the C.II, but with a new fuselage that completely filled the gap between the wings. The upper wing was at the top of the fuselage to give the observer in the front cockpit the best possible field of fire. One or two prototypes were ordered in late 1915, but the C.III never entered into service.
