Overview

The Rohrbach Ro IX "Rofix" was a German all-metal, parasol-wing fighter designed to meet the requirements for a new fighter competition conducted by the Turkish Air Force during the mid-1920s. A pair of prototypes were ordered, but both crashed during flight testing, killing one pilot, and further development was cancelled.
