EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the RAF Douglas DB-7 Havoc I, with the registration number AX910, in its prime during World War II. The Douglas DB-7 Havoc I was a twin-engine, medium bomber and attack aircraft, primarily used by the Royal Air Force (RAF) and United States Army Air Forces (USAAF). Its sleek design and powerful engines made it a formidable addition to the Allied forces' arsenal. The DB-7 Havoc I was the first version of the Havoc series, which was developed as a replacement for the RAF's obsolete Hampden and Manleyham bombers. This particular aircraft, AX910, was manufactured by the Douglas Aircraft Company in the United States and delivered to the RAF in 1942. It was assigned to 101 Squadron, which was based at RAF Gravesend in Kent, England. The DB-7 Havoc I was equipped with four Browning machine guns and could carry a bomb load of up to 4,000 pounds. It was used for various missions, including low-level attacks on enemy targets, daylight precision bombing, and even as a transport aircraft for paratroopers. Its versatility and reliability made it a valuable asset to the RAF during the war. This photograph captures the DB-7 Havoc I, AX910, in its natural habitat, ready for its next mission. The image reveals the intricate details of the aircraft, from its distinctive nose art to its engine cowlings and wing structure. The photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the Allied forces during World War II and serves as a reminder of the vital role that aircraft played in the conflict.
