Falca in the service of the Luftwaffe
On the night of March 11-12, 1944, five German pilot-operated Fiat CR.42LW biplanes from the Nachtschlachtgruppe 9 took off to attack Allied positions on the Italian front. More than three years after the night fighters Arado Ar 68 disappeared from the first-line armament of the Luftwaffe, the German Air Force began to use fighter biplanes again in combat. Of course, no longer in their original fighter role, but for night battles.
