Wellington: Britains Medium bomber and an important coastal command

For a short while, they probably wouldn't have missed it had it not been
designed.


I have to disagree. The Wellington was the best bomber available until
the Lancaster and Halifax came along, the fact that over 11,000 were
produced speaks for itself.


Not to mention its long service life.
