The Dewoitine D.520 is a famous French fighter aircraft from the Second World War period. This model was primarily used by the French Air Force during the 1940 campaign, constituting one of the main fighter types of the Armée de l’Air. Its modern, aerodynamic silhouette and good performance made it a worthy opponent of the German Messerschmitt Bf 109. After the armistice, the D.520 was also used by the Vichy government’s air force and other users, including Bulgaria and Germany, where it served mainly as a training aircraft.
