Potez 630 – Warbird Wednesday Episode #99

Potez 630 - Warbird Wednesday Episode #99, Palm Springs air museum, French airplane, French navy, night and heavy fighter

Welcome to Warbird Wednesday! Today, we’re visiting a multi-mission French airplane, the Potez 630. The design of this aircraft stemmed from the French’s need for a heavy fighter, night fighter, light bomber and a reconnaissance aircraft all in one aircraft. Sadly, the Potez 630 didn’t hold up well in combat and became know as a jack of all trade and master of none. The most successful use of the Potez 630 was as a reconnaissance role for the French Navy.
