06/15/2005. Remarks by Nico Braas: "Designed by Ing Frantisec Novotny, the B.34 was a biplane figher that made its first flight in 1932. Of this type, only a small batch of 12 was built for operational use by the Czechoslovakian air force. The picture shows the prototype, fitted with a 740 hp liquid-cooled Hispano-Suiza 12 Nbr 12-cilinder engine. The slightly modified production B.34's were fitted with a more powerful version of this engine producing 760 hp."
