Was the Albatros D.X fuselage the same as the D.XI's?

Same fuselage??

Albatros_Ace:
The Alb.D.X and Alb.D.XI fuselage were not the same. The Alb.D.X was powered with Benz V-8 BzIIIbm, with a fuselage length of about 5400mm from the front of the nose cowling to the stern post. The Alb.D.XI was powered with 11 cylinder rotary ShIII, and fuselage approximate length of 4900 mm.
While the design concept was simular for both fuselages they were not the same.
Blue skies,
