| I always thought it was the other way around. I thin that it was a stuka that (probably) was the first arial casualty. I will search it up. To be continued...

| Srry, it was the first german loss in ww2 shot down on the first day of the campain in poland by a p11.
I wonder how they ever find out when the first p11 was shot down. There were hundreds of p11 shot down in the first days..

Country: | perhaps, because it is invincible, they only had to make one as they knew it would never get shot down??

Country: | They were mostly killed on the ground, in the air they could just about hold their own even with the much vaunted Bf-109

Country: | I think you're holding the P.11c much-much-much higher than it should be there, MM. You might be mixing it up with something like a Spitfire or Hurricane.
