Re: Armee De l'Air Losses
According to Blitzkrieg-Legende, by Frieser the loss figures are:
Luftwaffe 1236 (+ 323 damaged) Armée de l'Air 892 Royal Air Force 1029 Although limited one should add the figures of the Dutch and Belgian AFs too. Dutch figures from De Luchtverdediging in de meidagen 1940, by Molenaar: ML 34 ground 43 combat 17 operational ---- 94 total lost (of 139 operational a/c) Luftwaffe losses against Holland 231 100% +42 >60% +55 <60% note the majority of Luftwaffe losses against Holland were Ju 52s I have no figures for the Belgian AF, at least that I know of.
