The most widely produced of the B-25 series of bombers, this aircraft featured two 1,850hp Wright Cyclone engines, an array of .50in guns, and carried up to 4,000 lbs. in bombs. Designed as a medium range bomber, B-25s served with every allied air force during WW2. First flown in August, 1940 The North American B-25 Mitchell became standard equipment for the allies in World War II. This twin-engine bomber was the most heavily armed airplane in the world. It was used for high- and low-level bombing, strafing, photoreconnaissance, submarine patrol and as a fighter. There were at least six major variants of the Mitchell, which included upgrades to power-operated two-gun turrets, the "greenhouse" style nose, and the 75mm cannon (one of the largest weapons fitted to an aircraft). The B-25 is perhaps most famous for its use in the Doolittle raid on Tokyo on April 18th, 1942.© Copyright 2003-2009 The Flying Mule, Inc.
