The AEG B.II was a two-seat biplane reconnaissance aircraft produced in small numbers from 1914 as a slightly smaller version of the B.I. It was powered by a Mercedes D.II six-cylinder water-cooled inline piston engine of 89.5 kilowatts, had a wingspan of 15.5 metres, an empty weight of 723 kilograms and a maximum speed of 110 kilometres per hour. The type was used in limited numbers through 1914 and 1915 by the German air service but was quickly replaced, as crews derided its lack of speed and armament. It was the direct predecessor of the armed AEG C.I.
