THE BLACKBURN B-24 SKUA

 

The Blackburn B-24 Skua was a British

Carrier-borne two-seater single-engine

Low-wing Naval dive bomber and fighter

The aircraft took its name from the sea bird

Which 'divebombs' any potential predators

They served with the Fleet Air Arm

During the Allied campaign in Norway,

As well as the evacuations from Dunkirk

Later in the war it reverted to a training role

The Skua was withdrawn altogether 1945
