 4 Squadron took part in, perhaps its most spectacular action, in the very last weeks of the war.On 29 October, 15 Australian Sopwith Snipes encountered more than 60 German Fokkers, in an action which became one of the largest air battles of the war.The Australians gained the upper hand and 10 Fokkers were shot down for the loss of one Snipe, and the damage of several others.
