[2] The Kadett was designed in 1933 to meet an official requirement for a basic trainer.
It was a single-bay biplane of fabric-covered, metal construction with open cockpits, a staggered wing, a strut-braced tail unit, and fixed tailskid undercarriage.
The prototype was powered by a 104 kW (139 hp) Argus As 8B air-cooled inline engine.
[3] The Kadett entered service with National Socialist Flyers Corps before the formation of the Luftwaffe.
