Editing Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor (section)

=== Allied tactics used against the Condor ===
Royal Naval Fleet Air Arm pilot Captain [[Eric Brown (pilot)|Eric Brown]]'s aircraft was seriously damaged by defensive fire during an attack he made on a Condor in 1940, and he narrowly survived. After this, he studied the design of the Condor seriously for some time. He managed to work out that the forward firing machine gun positions could swivel, but could only fire in a certain arc otherwise they would hit the fuselage of their own plane. Brown worked out where the arc was, and realised this was a blind spot, if one attacked the front of the plane. He used this to successfully destroy a Condor, then informed his fellow squadron pilots who used the tactic to destroy others.<ref>{{cite web |title=The Pilot Who Flew 487 Different Aircraft & Landed 2,271 Times On A Carrier!
