Fairey Fox 2: One Of The Unlikeliest Messerschmitt Killers Of World War 2

Описание: On the 10th of May 1940 nine antique biplanes left for a fighter sweep around Dienst. Without warning they were bounced by six BF-109s, which shot down three of them in seconds.

But the biplanes were not unarmed. Before his own aircraft plummeted to earth, Lieutenant Etienne Dufossez scored hits on a BF-109, perhaps even shooting it down. This is the story of the Fairey Fox 2, one of Interwar aviation's nearly planes.
