Re: Vichy French DB-7 a/c post "Torch"
According to a French website, after the armistice of June 1940, the Armée de l'Air had 95 DB-7, including 30 still unpacked and 20 in depots in North Africa.
Between this date and November 1942, a number were also lost in accidents, but the DB-7 were not used against the Allied, except for some small raids on Gibraltar in 1940.
According to the book "L'aviation de Vichy au combat, Volume 1", on 1 October 1942, the Armée de l'Air had still 79 DB-7.
