The French had more of these than anything else at the outbreak of war, the contract was placed in early 1938 and production started in late 1938.As long as we are talking about this plane, can someone tell me what was its combat history and what was it like in combat?
All around that may be the ugliest monoplane of the war outside of Poland's parasol-winged joke and the sad stupid-looking P-26 Peashooter.
I wonder why the MS 406 had a semi retractable radiator. Was it supposed to boost speed under certain conditions?
MS 406s under Finnish control enjoyed considerable success.
Probably, to reduce drag under certain flight regimes. And let's face it, the M.S. 406 needed all the help it could get.

they put captured Klimov engines in them.Parsifal, didn't the Finns re-engine or modify them in some way to make them more effective? I remember they called some of theirs the "Morko-Morane". Were these the modified versions?
