The friend vs. foe airchaft charts were intended to train ground and air crews in quick and proper identification of aircraft types. The charts give no indication of the abilities of the aircraft which were established in combat situations and became a matter of reputation. As such, the charts provide no more information than knowing the brand and model of a bicycle.
