Historical Overview of the Dewoitine D.520

The Dewoitine D.520 is a French single-seat fighter aircraft from World War II that entered service in 1940. It was designed and produced by SNCAM, with the main operator being the Armée de l'Air – the military air force of France. The D.520 was used primarily during the French campaign, being distinguished by its great maneuverability and durability in aerial combat. After France's capitulation, some units served with the Vichy Air Force as well as foreign clients, including Bulgaria.
