Description
This three-man bomber/torpedo bomber made its debut in the Battle of Midway. Despite the loss of five of the six aircraft that took part in their first mission, this aircraft would go on to become one of the most effective of its class in the Pacific theater. Because of its advantages, quickly becoming the standard carrier bomber of the U.S. Navy. Over 9,000 Avengers were built and many were used by other nations. They were used extensively on all fronts, both in the Pacific and in Europe, attacking surface targets or submarines. The Avenger was also employed against U-boats. The end of World War II did not mean the end of the Avenger: 500 examples, including some specialized versions, saw service with the U.S. Navy and in many other nations including Japan, the country against which the TBF had begun its career!
