The unequal situation led to the rapid defeat of the Norwegian air forces, even though seven Gladiators from "Jagevingen" (the fighter wing) defended Fornebu airport against the attacking German forces with some success—claiming two Bf 110 heavy fighters, two He 111 bombers and one Junkers Ju 52 transport. "Jagevingen" lost two Gladiators to ground strafing while they were rearming on Fornebu and one in the air, shot down by Future "Experte" Helmut Lent, injuring the sergeant pilot. After the withdrawal of allied forces, the Norwegian Government ceased fighting in Norway and evacuated to the United Kingdom on 10 June 1940.
