PZL P.23 Karas was the most numerous type of aircraft in service with the Polish Air Force in September 1939.
Impressed for Romanian service, P.23s flew missions against the USSR till the summer of 1943, and the Bulgarian PZL 43 Tchaikas - the export derivative of the P.23 - were withdrawn from first-line units only in September 1944.
The fuselage was thus redesigned to accept the Gnome-Rhone 14N-01 engine, and the plane was given the designation PZL 43A Tchaika (seagull in Bulgarian).

 PZL P.11c Review by Ron Dobrzelecki (Mirage Hobby 1/48)
I already hear that they are applying the same professionalism in planning and designing their PZL P.23 Karas, which originally was to be released prior to the P.11c kit.
There are no known original set of original blueprint drawings for this PZL fighter and the sole remaining P.11c is not complete in its original equipment.
Broplan's 1/48th scale vacuform PZL P.7 and P.11a came the closest, and remain the best of these variants to date in any scale.

Production responsibility was transferred to Poland's PZL Mielec in the 1960s, with the first example flying on October 23 1960.
More than 5000 An-2s were built in the Ukraine between 1948 and the mid 1960s, before production was transferred to PZL Mielec in Poland, where approximately 12,000 have been built and low rate production continues.
Agricultural versions have large chemical hoppers (1400 litres/308Imp gal/370US gal of liquid chemical or 1200kg/2645lb of dust in the An-2S, or 1960 litres/430Imp gal/517US gal for the An-2M) with spray bars along the lower wing.

 Greek PZL P.24 fighters
The Greeks responded to attrition by consolidating the PZL fighters in 22 and 23 Mira while 21 Mira was re-equipped with the newly arrived Gloster Gladiators.
For the PZL company the modernization program was belated acknowledgment of the fact that the successor of the P.11, the P.24, upon who's design the P.11g modifications were based had been dismissed just a little too soon by the Polish military.
The PZL P.24 did however prove it self able to deal with Italian Macchi MC.200 and Fiat CR.42 and CR.50 fighters of the Regia Aeronautica and this it proved quite conclusively in the hands of Greek pilots during the Italian invasion of that country.
