Enligt Wiki satte Fighter Command in 680 jaktplan
Jodå - men man ''roterade'' squadrons allteftersom deras förluster gjorde dom stridsodugliga, då förlusterna var förfärliga.
Fritt ur minnet - opererade aldrig mera än 10-12 squadrons från franska baser = 120-144 flygplan.
Jag gissar att Wiki-siffrran inkluderar vad som i slutskedet - sattes in från England, mest runt evakueringen från Dunkirk. Då t.ex. man satte in Spitfires f.f.g.
386 Hurricanes were lost in the Battle of France. Of these a staggering 350 were destroyed on the ground or left behind in the evacuation of France.
The figure of 386 Hurricane losses includes those lost operating from England and fighting over the continent.
In the period May 10th to June 20th - 944 RAF aircraft operating
from Britain and France were lost. Of these 386 were Hurricanes
and 67 Spitfires. Wood and Dempster,Narrow Margin, p. 200
Och från Kapten-Gars utmärkta länk:
The claimed victories for May-June 1940 are:
• Great Britain: 821 (for the fighters : 201 for the Air Component, 131 for the Advanced Air Striking Force and 489 for the Fighter Command)
• France: 853 (733 for the fighters + 120 for the AA defenses) (Buffotot and Ogier, 1975)
• Netherlands: 525 (fighters + AA defenses)
• Belgium: about 100
--> Total : 2,299
These numbers are of course impossible because the Germans lost about 1,300-1,400 planes
Go figure...Varjag
