This sleek Dewoitine D-510 experienced great success in the French Air Force during the early thirties. Its armament and speed were superior to the contemporary Boeing P-26A. With a 20mm cannon and two wing-mounted machine guns, the D-S10 had a maximum speed of 2S0-mph. Its SOO-hp Hispano-Suisa 12 cylinder engine took this ship to an altitude of 9,840 feet in three minutes, 36 seconds. The P-26A, armed with only two machine guns had a top of 227-mph. The D-SI0 was widely exported. Un-' 'fortunately for France, it wasn't to be long before Germany's powerful Focke Wulf 190's would shoot them out of the skies. While the D-510's saw active service with the French Air Force during 1939 - 40, their effectiveness had long since passed by then.
