Several Messerschmitt Bf 110s fly in formation and attack ground targets with bombs, their propellers clearly visible in motion. As a fast, heavily armed destroyer, the Bf 110 served both to combat enemy aircraft and as a bomber and ground-attack aircraft. The massive Luftwaffe effort against Polish troops, transport routes and cities was central to the German offensive strategy and contributed to Poland's rapid military defeat. The campaign ended in early October 1939 with Poland partitioned between Germany and the Soviet Union.
