This game AVIATION is a L'Attaque variant and hence another predecessor of Stratego. Together with L'Attaque and Dover Patrol these games were sold by Gibsons along with a more complicated incorporation of all three, a game called Tri-Tactics. Together the games were marketed at the time as Series: The Big Four (Gibsons)
A later game called Battle of Britain (Gibsons English fifth edition) was introduced in the 1960s with a different board layout and updated pieces but similar game mechanics.
