RE: Please help with identifying this bomber

in #planes6 years ago (edited)

This is a Avro Shackleton with RR Griffons engines and contra rotating propellers.The Shackleton was a purpose-built aircraft for the maritime patrol role. The Avro Shackleton was a British long-range patrol aircraft and it was developed by Avro from the Avro Lincoln bomber, which itself has been a development of the famous wartime Avro Lancaster bomber.

Sort:  

At first I thought it was a Lancaster, but the nose and a couple of other things weren't right.
