During the invasion of Poland (September 1 - October 6, 1939), the Luftwaffe first attacked the city of Wieluń in south central Poland. The city was "carpet bombed", destroying 75% to 90% of the town, and killing more than 1200 of its 15,000 civilian residents.
The Luftwaffe also acted as airborne artillery. Planes such as the Stuka dive bomber went ahead of the Panzers, destroying targets that would impede the tanks' advance, as well as destroying the small Polish air force.
