THE SUPERMARINE WALRUS

 

The Supermarine Walrus was a British

Single-engine amphibious biplane designed

As a maritime patrol aircraft by R. J. Mitchell

It was purposed as a fleet spotter, launched

By catapult from cruisers or battleships

And was employed as a maritime patrol aircraft

The Walrus first took to the skies in 1933

And served until the end of the WW2

They continued in various civilian roles

Well into the 1960’s
