1:1 Replica of the Potez 631, a French Heavy Fighter of the WWII.

It was a Twin-engine, fully metallic, three-seater with very efficient aerodynamic lines and twin tailplanes. It's basic design allows it to perform a wide range of roles during the war.
The simple design was designed to have a pleasant flying characteristics and makes it easy to mantain.
It was armed (in this version) with 2 under-fuselage cannons, 4 forward-firing fixed machine guns, 1 flexible rear-mounted machine gun and 2 bomb racks on the wing roots, this powerful armament makes it a very harsh oponent, despite this, the plane was very slow, big and the low fuel capacity makes it useful in close range operations.

Fantastic subject ! Potez saw also war action in the Balkans in WW2. Greece had 24 of them ! You have my vote!
@RASEN1914 I think you can see it but...I'm celebrating 100 years of the R.A.F (aka: R.A.F 100)
@RASEN1914 you’ve done a lot of Japanese Planes so can you take a look at my first: the Ki.43 Hayabusa? It won’t be nearly as good as yours but it’s simple and it’s a plane, so I completed the game.
