Improved windshields were fitted regardles of the rest of the armor before June 1940.

Hmm - possisble. I would need to check but the May 1940 papers I have (reporting armoring on Hurricane's, but mentioning that no Spitfire have been fitted with armor yet) do seem be in conflict. Perhaps 'improved windshields' were not considered as 'armor' only steel plates?

Out of curiousity, what is your source for armored windshields?
