The DP.II was a development of the earlier DP.I with the change to be a cantilever unequal-span biplane. [1] The DP.II was built with wooden wings and a steel-frame fabric covered fuselage and tailplane. [1] The aircraft had a fixed tailskid landing gear and was powered by a Siemens-Halske radial engine. [1] Following the single Siemens-Halske Sh 4 powered prototype was a production run of 58 improved DP.IIa variants powered by Siemens-Halske Sh 5 radial engines. [2]
