rom the figures posted it seems that the RAF losses were proportionately
larger than those of the Armee de l'Air. Why was that?

The loss of material, ie 892 from 10 May to 11 June (loss from 12 to 25 June are no known),
represent 70% of 1286 planes available May 10,
And 30% of the crews from May 10 to June 25.

In fact the French had more aircraft available at the end than at the beginning!

Yes this shows the great effort made by the industry.
However, a large Quantities were not operational because production of
Accessories have not followed the production of cells,
So most of them had not received their weapons,
their instruments etc...
