Simple Breguet B.693

44 LeRetromancien  4.3 years ago

A tentative of re-creation of the not well known French plane.

History:

This was a ground attack airplane produce during the phony war. Only 25 were usable during the German offensive. Despite significant damage inflicted on German troops, they were all destroyed in the fighting.

The recreation:

The principal difference between my plane and the real are:

No rear turret unlike the original

The machine gun uses 8 mm cartridge unlike the original (7.5 mm)

Not the real dimension

Armement:

4 bombs of 50 pounds, 4 8mm machine guns (the 2 at the level of the cockpit for the anti-aircraft and the 2 others for the attack on the ground).

Have fun!
