The Bulgarians were quite good customers for Polish aircraft. They also used the P.43 Chaika (re-engined version of the P.23 Karas), but I think some of these had to be delivered after the fall of Poland courtesy of the German occupation authorities. I'm pretty sure - correct me if I'm wrong - they were also interested in the P.46 Sum (and maybe the P.37 Los) but that these orders couldn't be carried through due to the invasion.
