EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the power and determination of the American Douglas A-20A Attacking Light Bomber, also known as the Havoc by the US Army Air Forces (USAAF) and the Boston by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), during its combat mission in the early 1940s. The image, believed to have been taken around 1941, shows the A-20A in action, releasing its bombs over an unidentified target. Designed specifically for low and medium altitude combat, the A-20A was a formidable addition to the Allied forces during World War II. Its versatility made it an effective weapon against both ground targets and enemy aircraft. The USAAF adopted the British name Havoc for the A-20A, while the RAAF referred to them as Bostons. The Douglas Aircraft Company produced over 7,000 A-20As between 1941 and 1945, making it one of the most widely used American bombers of the war. Its distinctive appearance, with its twin engines and large bomb bay, became a familiar sight to Allied forces and their enemies alike. This photograph is a testament to the courage and skill of the pilots and crews who flew these powerful machines in defense of freedom during the 1940s. The A-20A played a crucial role in the Allied victory in Europe, and its legacy continues to inspire awe and respect among aviation enthusiasts and military history buffs alike.
