In order to keep the download size small, this zip comprises only the modified textures. There were at least 12 SPADs in portuguese service, from 1919 until 1935. The first operational unit was created in 1919 at Amadora (north of Lisbon) and was called "Grupo de Esquadrilhas de Aviação República" ( Squadron Group Republica ), with "Esquadrilhas de Combate" (Fighter squadrons) equipped with SPADs.
