If that's the case, Lanc. We call those kinds of children, dirty scrubbers that I would touch with a barge pole, ever.

I was inclined for the Lancaster, mainly due to the dambuster raids, But wasnt the B-29 the plane that dropped the Atomic Bomb on Hiroshima? Please correct me if I am wrong, but that is what I have voted for.

MP is right, the second atomic weapon was dropped from Box Car and not The Great Artist as some sources reported.

and we've established that the lancaster could carry an atomic weapon, but we won't go into that again...................

I suppose it would depend which theatre of the war u were talking about.
In 1939/1940 it would probably be the HE111 or the Wellington.Later in the war there were only 2 bombers in europe worth talking about namely the B17 and the Lancaster.In the pacific the B17 seemed to fail badly, but the B29 succeeded.
The best daylight bomber would have to be the B17 and night bomber the Lancaster.
