Design and development
Whilst the other LFG two seat monoplane sports aircraft (the V 40, V 42 and V 44) produced in 1925 were all metal designs, the V 52 employed wooden construction. It also differed from them in having a braced, rather than wholly cantilever wing. This was built around wooden box spares, with three ply ribs and fabric covering. The fuselage was also wooden, with three ply covering.[1]
Like the V 40, the V 52 was powered by a 75 hp (56 kW) Siemens-Halske Sh 11 7-cylinder radial engine.[1]
Operational history
The V 52 was amongst five LFG entries to the Round Germany Flight held in the summer of 1925, though only the LFG V 39 biplane took take part, with all four monoplanes failing to make the start.[1][2]
