The Bristol Beaufort, which began to enter service with the Coastal Command at the end of 1939, was a twin-engine naval torpedo bomber with a combat load of up to 908 kg, and it could also perform reconnaissance operations. In the first modification - Mk I - were produced 1014 aircrafts. These aircrafts began combat operations in April 1940 - they carried out aerial mining of seaports, carried out day and night torpedo attacks, hit coastal targets with bombs. Service on them was difficult and dangerous, and in some periods of the war losses among the crews of torpedo boats were the highest in the entire Royal Air Force. However, despite all the difficulties and combat losses, these aircraft had a significant number of successful attacks on enemy convoys and warships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore to read about the KIT \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.scalemates.com\/fr\/kits\/icm-48310-bristol-beaufort-mki--1330560\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e, thanks to scalemates, a Belgian Scale modeling database\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ICM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53456116810074,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/3015\/9446\/files\/IMG_2222.JPG?v=1769680156","url":"https:\/\/aviation.brussels\/products\/maquette-a-monter-bristol-beaufort-mk-i-wwii-british-torpedo-bomber-icm-n-48310-1-49","provider":"aviation.brussels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
