Next video please Greek P.24 fighting against the Italian Regia Aeronautica - there P.24 proved their worth fighting victoriously against the much more numerous invader! :) The Royal Hellenic Air Force (EVA) was the only air force during the Second World War to operate the PZL.24 as its main fighter type. Two different subtypes, consisting of 30 P.24F and six P.24G, were ordered and delivered between 1937 and 1938. Upon arrival, these were split between three Mirae Dioxeos (Fighter Squadrons): the 21st at Trikala, 22nd at Thessaloniki and 23rd at Larissa. The only other operational Greek fighters, stationed further south, were eight Bloch MB.151s and two each Gloster Gladiator Mk Is and Avia B-534 II, both of which were of limited value. During October 1940, the month in which Italy launched its invasion of Greece, the Polish fighter was the Greeks' only modern type in adequate numbers. Its armament was the real advantage against the Italian fighters, whose reliance on the slow-firing Breda-SAFAT 12.7mm machine guns proved detrimental. The P.24F, armed with a pair of 20mm Oerlikon FF cannon and two machine guns, gave the Greeks a temporary edge in combat until lack of ammunition and spares forced EVA to re-arm all P.24Fs with 4x Colt - Browning 7.7 mm MG40 machine guns. Overall, the P.24s performed gallantly during the early period of the conflict, holding their own against impossible numerical odds and despite the fact that their main target were enemy bombers, which forced them to fight at a disadvantage against enemy fighters. Italian claims of easy superiority over the Albanian front were vastly exaggerated and their kill claims even exceeded the total number of operational fighters on the Greek side. In total, Greek fighter losses in combat came to 24 aircraft, while the Greek fighter pilots claimed to have achieved 64 confirmed kills and 24 probables, around two-thirds of which were bombers). By April 1941, however, lack of spares and attrition had forced EVA to merge the five surviving P.24s into one understrength squadron, which was supported by five Gloster Gladiator Mk I and II's and the two surviving MB.151s. That month, these remaining fighters fought hopelessly against the Luftwaffe onslaught, scoring 4 kills (two Hs-126, one Ju 87B and one Do 17) while losing most of their surviving aircraft on the ground.
I gotta ask; the graphics on this vid looks absolutely incredible for this old game. I'm running similar hardware to your own, in fact, the same graphics card and I thought I had all the settings optimal, and mine doesn't look as good as this. I've not updated to flashpoint, I still use the previous update. Is there something in flashpoint that does this? My reason for not getting the latest is I didn't see anything in it that would make the gameplay any better; still the same piece of shit cheating AI!!

Albeit outdated, the Emil could still outmatch anything else over Greece.
Painful to watch, like a cat playing with a mouse.
You should credit the artist whose work you used as your thumbnail etc.
I think yes

He is probably using the Grafic Extender together with reshade
I use Reshade , visual and fov mod.
Never offensive…
Nothing cool on your vid. Those PZL P24 were no match for BF109. 👎
War is not cool. Is It?
@@tomekrol Right, so tell me what is the point of your video? Is it the wasteful heroism of P24 pilots?
@@tomoplt5437 That was a true Heroism! The point of my video is to show all those aircrafts and their dramatic fight.
but that was the reality
