In 1940, some 5,800 combat and training planes were produced. Nearly 300, according to publish- ed reports, were trainers, the majority being delivered to the Army and Navy. Of those sent abroad, France got about 900 be- fore its collapse in mid-Summer. 'Of the other 1,900, the Army re- position is that the balance was delivered to Great Britain.
