Bloch MB.135 French Bomber Prototype
The Bloch MB.135 made its maiden flight on 12 January 1939. A development of the Bloch MB.131, it was designed as a medium bomber for the French Air Force. Heavily redesigned, it bore little resemblance to the MB.131 it was derived from. It was developed in parallel with the twin-engined MB.134 bomber version.
Despite promising performance, it was not entered into production, as it did not represent a sufficient improvement of existing bombers (the LeO 45 and Amiot 350).
