The Dauntless prototype first flew in 1939 but did not enter production and service until 1940.
The Boston did not enter service until January 10, 1941.

Country: | Humor is allowed and encouraged, however since I was discussing it with you in the Best Bomber thread, it was no longer funny.

Express yourself! go on, do it. Imagine me expressing my self not wearing any trousers. You dont want to imagine it but you are arent you? Ha, I laugh in your face for thinking of me wearing no trousers against your will. You sick perverts!
