The Fairey Battle was
shown to be inadequate as a day bomber early in WW2, but entered
widespread use as a trainer and target tug with various Commonwealth air
forces. Under the Empire Air Training Scheme (EATS), Australia took
delivery of 366 of the type between June 1940 and December 1943. The
Fairey Battle was withdrawn from RAAF use in 1949. |
