UK1 R5609 Avro Lancaster BoscombeDown.jpg - Lanc ASV.jpg (0/1)
Indeed. I did some poking around. The Lancaster is an obvious early
production model. The antenna look like they are an installation of ASV Mk. 2. Also the bombbay has been modified - bulged outward. So is this an antishipping experiment with torpedoes and depth charges. Looks to be. Though I bet they canceled it due to the demands of Bomber Command and the appearance of enough Liberators to meet bare minimum needs. Here is a closeup of the nose. Waldo.
