William, e-mail, 07.12.2023 08:00 The Spanish claimed that their NiD-52s could only reach a speed of 140 m.p.h., not the 160+ . The Republicans claimed that three NiD-52s could pretty well hold their own against one Fiat C.R. 32. reply | Barry, 12.05.2016 16:41 Based on the earlier Ni-D 42 but with metal replacing the wood of the earlier model, the Ni-D 52 was not ordered by the French with the vast majority of the production going to Spain where it was to fight on both sides in the Civil War. As the war progressed and the Italians and the Germans became involved it was painfully obvious that these machines were outclassed. reply |
