During the Second World War, the French manufacturer [[Morane-Saulnier]] was operated under German control, during which time it built a number of German types including the Storch. Immediately after the [[liberation of France]] in 1944, the production of the Fi&nbsp;156 at the Morane-Saulnier factory was continued at the request of the ''[[Armée de l'Air]]''. The resulting batch of aircraft produced with the remaining stock of [[Argus As 10|Argus air-cooled inverted V8 engines]] were designated ''MS 500 Criquet''. Aircraft with further modifications and  different engines ([[Inline engine (aeronautics)|inline]] and [[Radial engine|radial]]) received various different type numbers. The use of the aircraft in [[French Indochina|Indochina]] highlighted the weakness of wood for the construction of the airframe; thus it was decided to build the wings out of metal instead. Among the modifications, the defensive weapon aiming through the back window was dropped, although some aircraft were modified in the field to take a [[MAC 1934|MAC 34T]] machine gun firing through one of the side windows. Some 141 aircraft were built before the end of the Second World War while a total of 925 aircraft were built before the end of the production of all types of ''Criquet'' by Morane-Saulnier in 1965.
