The Brewster Buffalo (model 339-23) was one of the first single-seat, piston-engined fighters introduced into service before and during World War II. Although its performance did not match that of its European and Japanese counterparts of the early 1940s, it played a significant role in the early years of the global conflict, especially during the fighting in the Pacific. Australian Buffalos participated in the defense of Malaya and Singapore, and American Buffalos operated in the Philippines and the Dutch East Indies.
