- Bomber Brigade
The Bomber Brigade ( _pl. Brygada Bombowa) was a Polish
World War II unit of thePolish Air Force . It resisted the Invasion of Poland in 1939 as the main aerial reserve of the commander in chief and was used for bombing enemy units in central Poland. It was created just before the war and did not have time to reach full operational readiness. Its equipment consisted of 36 modernPZL.37 Łoś medium bombers and 50 olderPZL.23 Karaś light bombers, plus 21 support planes. It was organised into four squadrons, each in turn composed of two escadrilles. It was similar in make-up to the Pursuit Brigade.*
