War Thunder [Development] M.S.410: The Duelist |
| [Development] M.S.410: The Duelist Posted: 14 Nov 2017 10:50 PM PST ![]() The M.S.410 is a further development of the Morane-Saulnier M.S.406 fighter, developed in France in mid 1940. The machine featured a list of improvements over the previous model, but the occupation of France in 1940 meant that the aircraft was only manufactured in limited numbers. Let's take a closer look at one of the fighters available to pilots in the lower ranks of the French aviation tree in update 1.73 "Vive la France". As the M.S.406 began entering squadron service in 1939, engineers at Morane-Saulnier continued working on the design, aiming to improve it. Several changes were made to the base design, which included the replacement of the old wing design with a new one, increased and improved offensive capabilities and the replacement of the old retractable radiator with a fixed one, among others. The applied changes resulted in the new M.S.410 being able to achieve somewhat better performance than its predecessor, namely reaching a slightly higher top speed. Right after the M.S.410 entered production, France capitulated in June 1940, halting the production of the aircraft after the fifth machine was constructed. ![]() ![]() All in all, the M.S.410 is a more than capable fighter at its rank. It combines decent maneuverability, speed and firepower into a very unsuspecting package, eager to unleash its fury at the controls of a cunning pilot. Have you had the chance to try the M.S.410 in battle yet? Maybe you've been on the receiving end of one? Let us know about your experiences with the M.S.410 in the comments below. Until next time!
