THE ARMSTRONG WHITWORTH WHITLEY

 

The Armstrong Whitworth A.W.38 Whitley

Was a British twin-engine medium/heavy bomber

In service with the RAF at the outbreak of WW2

By 1942 it was superseded by the larger bombers

Like the four-engine heavy Avro Lancaster

They still retained a role in the war effort

As maritime reconnaissance with Coastal Command

A glider-tug, trainer and as a transport aircraft
