Poland's First And Last Line Of Defense: PZL P.11

In this video, we talk about the PZL P11, a Polish fighter aircraft from World War II that served as their main fighter. We first talk about Poland in general, briefly going through some Polish history and how they have often been targeted. We talk about the formation of Poland after World War I, their war with Russia, their economic hardships with hyperinflation and the Great Depression, and their social and political problems. We then talk about the start of the P 11 fighter lineage in the P.1, a very similar fighter, and how, when it was created back in the late 20's or early 30's, it was one of the more advanced aircraft in the world. We talk about the evolution of the design, to the P.6, P.7, P.8, P.9, and eventually the P.11 in the early 30's. We also talk about why Poland didn't advance past the P-11, and how their stock of P.11's and some P.7's had to defend against the attacking Germans by September 1939. We end by talking about the surprisingly solid performance of the P.11 against more advanced and powerful German aircraft, like the Bf 109.
