@gblair At the same time yes and no. Because Fairey Batlle were used as daylight bomber without fighter cover, based on the archaic doctrine of the 1930s that a fast single-engine bomber would escape enemy fighters. That's the first thing. Secondly, the Fairey Battle was a light bomber, not an attack aircraft. Attacking the crossings on the Albert Canal, for example, was pure suicide. Now for something positive. In the summer and autumn, Polish bomber squadrons 300 and 301 in England gained operational capability on Fairey Battle aircraft and launched a night bombing offensive on French ports. Loss? One plane throughout the fall of 1940... As a result of fire aa.
@christopher Thank You! Did You finished Your Battle? (I'm thinking about to make polish squadron Battle by aftermarket decals).
