The Albatros D.X was a German prototype single-seat fighter biplane developed in 1918 in parallel with the D.IX. It used the same slab-sided, flat-bottomed fuselage as the D.IX, a departure from earlier Albatros designs, but was powered by a 145 kW Benz Bz.IIIb water-cooled V8 engine in place of the D.IX's Mercedes D.IIIa straight-six. It took part in the second D-type contest at Adlershof in June 1918, but development ceased at the prototype stage.
