Polish PZL P.11 Fighter

The Polish PZL P.11 was a fighter of the early 1930s, recognizable by its high gull wing and fixed landing gear. Once an advanced all-metal design, it was overtaken by faster low-wing monoplanes before Germany invaded Poland in 1939. Polish pilots nevertheless flew it in the defense of their country under difficult conditions. The aircraft represents both a significant indigenous aviation achievement and the consequences of entering a modern campaign with a fighter whose performance standard had been surpassed. The high-mounted gull wing gave the fighter a recognizable form and good visibility, reflecting Polish design innovation in the early 1930s. By 1939, fixed undercarriage and modest speed left it at a disadvantage against newer aircraft. Polish pilots nevertheless employed it in combat during the defense of their country.
