| Halifax III Drawing Sorry little hard to read but some may find it interesting on a Halifax III cutaway from the Halifax manual.

| I'm curious about the 4x.303 turrets. Any records to indicate they were any more/less effective than a 2x.50?

| Nice one Micdrow takes me back to the "Lion" comics of my youth, every week an new cutout drawing. Thorlifter Similar debate on in http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/tec...tml#post471061 (British Bomber Armament Question) It was standard defensive armament in British bombers Wellingtons, Stirling, Halifax and Lancasters. Later in the war twin .5 did replace the 4 x .303 in the rear turrets and they also appeared in the mid upper turrets as did 20mm canons. |
