French MS 406 Over Belgium, May 1940


Recommended Posts

The Morane-Saulnier MS.406 was the workhorse fighter plane of the French Air Force during the Battle of France, in May-June 1940, which left France ill-defended against German Luftwaffe's newest fighters and bombers. For my collection of WW2 planes, here is one on May 12th, 1940 as Allied forces moved into Belgium against a seeming German attack there. Meanwhile German sturm forces were speeding across the Ardennes forests!

Thanks DAVIDSTRAKA and Peer for you comment!

That one again, on the other hand, isn't a new file. But I'm getting my WW2 plane collection complete as far as I can, before that new FS2020 :):)

Thanks Larry! Like I told Peer, I'm getting to WW2 warbirds I still didn't get into my collection, and bypassing the rule I had, to photograph only the planes published lately
