Bloch MB.700 Fighter

The Bloch MB.700 was a light-weight fighter designed for the French Air Force. It used a wooden frame, to conserve strategic materials and a 700hp Gnome-Rhône 14 M6. First flying on 19 April 1940, it subsequently undertook a series of evaluation flights. When German forces occupied the airfield it was based at, they burned it. A second partially built aircraft was never completed.
