The Albatros C.XIV was a German two-seat, single-engine biplane fighter built in 1918, of which only one was constructed. After experimenting in 1917 with two-seat aircraft based on its single-seat D.V, Albatros returned to the two-bay biplane layout and flat-sided fuselage of its earlier C types. The straight-edged wings had constant chord, and it was the first Albatros C type to include stagger; the upper wing had a semicircular cut-out to improve the pilot's forward view. A 220 horsepower Benz Bz.IVa six-cylinder inline engine powered it, and it carried a Spandau MG08 and a Parabellum MG14 machine gun. It first flew in early 1918 but did not enter production, and was instead modified into the larger but lighter C.XV.
