All

It is reported often, on the Interweb at least, that 31 (or 38) Ju 52s were shot down by Dutch Fokker D.XXIs on the morning of 10 May 1940

Myth or fact?

According to Illusies en Incidenten 3 Fokker D.XXIs were credited with a damaged He 111 on Nov 19, 1939.

According to De luchtverdediging mei 1940 Dutch Fokker D.XXIs were credited with 16/2/2 victories on May 10 and May 11, 1940. Thus 2/0/0 Ju 88, 3/0/0 Ju 52, 3/2/0 Me 110, 6/0/2 Me 109, 1/0/0 bomber, 1/0/0 Do 17. All but 2/2/0 Me 110s are on May 10.

Total Dutch aerial claims for 1939-1940 (to May 13) were 38/2/9. I do not remember if the book listed claims by the anti-aircraft units.

Enjoy!

Frank.
