The Dornier Komet, Merkur, Do C, Do D, and Do T were a family of aircraft manufactured in Germany during the 1920s, originally as small airliners, but which saw military use as well.
The earliest aircraft in the series were basically landplane versions of the Delphin flying boat, and although the Delphin and Komet / Merkur series diverged from each other, design changes and refinements from one family were often incorporated into the other.
All variants were braced high-winged single-engine monoplanes with conventional landing gear.
