Beschrijving

                      BREWSTER BUFFALO

The Brewster Buffalo is one of those aircraft that seems to have been truly wanted by no one.  It was the US Navy's first monoplane fighter and served to pave the way for the more capable Wildcat.  It was sold overseas at the beginning of WWII to the British , Dutch, and the Finns, mostly because they were desperate for aircraft and would take anything.  The only ones to gain any true success with the aircraft were the Finns, who had several pilots become aces flying against the Russians in the early 1940s.  The US, British, and Dutch experience with the aircraft against the Japanese is one of an obsolete aircraft being torn to bits by the superior Japanese aircraft.  The US used them at the Battle of Midway in June, 1942 and lost almost all of them.  The British experience in Burma and Singapore was similar.  The Dutch managed to keep a few of them flying for a few months before they were all destroyed in their defense of Java.
