While the RAF got international fame in WW2, the French Armée de l'Air (Airforce) was not as much lauded despite the courage of its pilots and the relatively good results over the Luftwaffe during the Battle of France. Indeed, the French Airforce had few good planes, most of its aircrafts were old and outmached by German fighter planes. The French High Command did not pay a great attention to Airforce, this strategic mistake proved disastrous.
