Designed in 1935 and designed for guarding large areas. It ended up being used as a bomber however. When WWII broke out, only 16 Fokker T.V's had been delivered. 9 were enlisted with the bomber wing (850, 853, 854, 855, 856, 858, 859, 862 en 865), 1 was almost complete (852), 1 without engines (857), 1 waiting for armament (863), 1 as spare parts bird (851) and 1 near the KLM building (860). These were all based at Amsterdam/Schiphol. 861 was based at Texel for crew training. Unfortunately I wasn't able to identify the aircraft in the photo. Photo from Harm Reinders
