THE BLACKBURN ROC

 

The Blackburn B-25 Roc was a British

Carrier-borne single-engine naval fighter

Named after the mythical bird of the Arabian Nights,

And primarily 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The Roc was withdrawn altogether during 1943
