The Halberstadt C.VIII was a prototype two-seat general-purpose biplane built by Halberstadt during World War I.
The C.VIII was a single-bay biplane of wooden construction with shortened wings, an elongated fuselage and a Maybach Mb.IV engine.
Test flights were successful and the C.VIII was recommended for mass production, but the end of World War I meant that the C.VIII remained at the prototype stage.
