History:
The Avia B-135 was a modern Czechoslovak fighter aircraft. It was the production version of the Avia B-35 developed shortly before the war, based on the B-35.3.
In 1939 the prototype of B-135.1 attracted the attention of Bulgarian Air Force officers visiting the Avia plant. A contract for production of 12 aircrafts and 62 engines was signed, as well as a license to allow an additional 50 airframes to be constructed by DSF (State Airplane Factory) as the DAR-11 Lyastovitsa ("Swallow" ). Plans for production were stopped by Germany, supply of engines was reduced to 35 and cannons were never supplied. The Bulgarian Air Force was encouraged to purchase the Messerschmitt Bf 109 instead. These the 12 Czech-built planes were ever made.
B-135s without cannons were classified as unfit for combat service. In 1943 as a consequence, the decision was made to relegate the twelve B-135s to the fighter-training role and transfer them to the Fighter school based at Dolna Mitropoliya. In 1944 a section of four Avias probably managed to shoot down a B-24. It was the only kill scored with B-135 during the war. Their sad end came in 1946, when the last surviving aircraft were used as target during air-to-ground shooting practice.
