AIR FIGHTING
HEAVY ENEMY LOSSES IN BRITAIN
FORTY RAIDERS SHOT DOWN.
ANOTHER. 17 MACHINES SEVERELY DAMAGED.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON. March 14. An analysis of the German air raids against Britain show increasing enemy losses. This has been partly due to the seasonal change in weather conditions, but another factor has been improved methods of attack by the British fighters. Some 40 enemy planes have been shot down in the first six months of the war and about 17 more so severely damaged as to be probable losses. Still not a single British fighter has been lost in these air actions.
