THE BRISTOL BEAUFORT

 

The Bristol Beaufort

Was a British twin-engine

Torpedo bomber

Which saw service

With RAF Coastal Command

And then the Fleet Air Arm

Of Royal Navy

They were versatile and not

Used exclusively as torpedo bombers,

They were also utilized with great effect

As conventional bombers and mine-layers

However despite distinguishing themselves

In the Mediterranean

And in the defence of Malta

Their day in the sun

Was over all too soon

They were relegated to a trainer

Until the war ended
