Breguet 693
Initial operational deployment of the Breguet 693 on 12 May 1940, attacking German columns advancing through Belgium, was little short of disastrous, with 10 out of 11 attackers being destroyed in action or written off on landing. Subsequent use proved the type effective if given adequate fighter escort, or if a low-level approach were made to the target. Nevertheless, by 25 June almost 50 per cent of the 106 Bre.693s which had been delivered to the Armee de I'Air had been destroyed. After the Franco-German Armistice, two groupes (GBA 1/51 and 1/54) continued to operate with Bre.693 and Bre.695s, but in November 1942 the aircraft were confiscated by the Germans and transferred to Italy for use as trainers.
