History

Production of the Le0 451 started in 1938 but problems with the engines and propellers meant that only 54 of the 222 built where operational during the battle of France. After the fall of France they continued to serve the Vichy French forces, who even built another 109 of them. By the end of the war only 67 survived tho, they continued to be used until to 1957 & where the last French pre-war plane to be taken out of service.
