Heroic Challenges of the 303rd Fighter Squadron

303 Warsaw Fighter Squadron named after Tadeusz Kościuszko - fighter aviation squadron of the Polish Air Force in Great Britain. 303 Squadron is considered one of the best fighter units of World War II.

During the Battle of Britain in 1940, it was credited with 126 certain kills officially scored during the war, which made it the first among the fighter squadrons taking part in the battle. After the war, however, it turned out that the total number of victories credited to Allied pilots was approximately one and a half times higher than the actual German losses. There is no doubt that the result of 126 kills of the 303 Squadron is the best among the Allied squadrons.

Polish historian Jacek Kutzner considered 59.8 kills to be confirmed, which still gives 303 Squadron the first place among all air squadrons taking part in the Battle of Britain. However, British historian John Alcorn considered 44 victories to be confirmed, which puts the division in fourth place among the Battle of Britain divisions.
