Brief historical overview: Bloch MB.151 aircraft were designed at the request of the French military aviation by the team of Société des Avions Marcel Bloch at the end of the 1930s. The modernist, all-metal construction with retractable landing gear rivaled the Morane-Saulnier MS.406. Serial production began in 1938, and the aircraft entered service just before the outbreak of World War II. Only 75 MB.151C1 units were produced; some ended up in Greek hands or were captured by the Luftwaffe after the French campaign. The MB.151 was used during the French campaign in 1940 and by the Hellenic Air Force in fights against the Luftwaffe in 1940–1941. Period of use: World War II.
