WW2 RAF Bristol Beaufort torpedo bomber

The WW2 RAF Bristol Beaufort torpedo bomber was designed as a torpedo bomber from the start as well as for a reconnaissance role unlike many over fighters that were converted to carry torpedoes. It first flew in October 1938 and was issued to RAF No.22 Squadron in November 1939. It remained in Coastal Command as its standard torpedo bomber until 1943. It also carried out the role of mine layer, dropping magnetic mines up until 1943. Bristol Beaufort torpedo bombers saw active service over the English Channel, the North Sea and the Atlantic. In 1942 they were posted to the indian Ocean and the mediterranean. The Malta based Bristol Beauforts were very successful in sinking Rommels suppliy ships that helped the Allies win the war in North Africa. 1380 Beauforts were produced and that includes the 700 that were built in Australia.
