List of historic Estonian Air Force aircraft
The Estonian Air Force had more than 130 aircraft in the middle of the 1930s.[1] Estonian engineers had previously designed and constructed several trainer and light fighter aircraft types, of which the most famous is the PTO-4 which entered service in 1938 as a military training aircraft.[2]
Before the Soviet occupation, Estonia had placed an order for 12 Supermarine Spitfire fighters and 2 Westland Lysander aircraft from Britain, and was also seeking to purchase 12 Messerschmitt Bf 109 fighters from Germany.[citation needed] Deliveries were interrupted by the start of World War II and the Spitfires later served in the Royal Air Force.
