EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative illustration from the Spring of 1943, Royal Air Force (RAF) bombers are depicted making their way towards their target of Berlin, leaving a trail of smoke behind them. The ominous backdrop of a moonlit sky adds to the sense of drama and tension as the RAF force prepares to drop their bombs on the German capital. On the left-hand side of the image, several types of new German anti-aircraft defences are shown, adding an extra layer of danger to the mission. The most striking of these defences are the "Giant Daisies" and "Catherine Wheels," which were recently introduced to the battle. The Giant Daisies, also known as "Rundstedt" or "Bofors" flowers, were large, mobile anti-aircraft guns that could be easily maneuvered to different locations. The Catherine Wheels, on the other hand, were large, fixed anti-aircraft guns that were mounted on railways and could be moved to different positions along the tracks. The RAF bombers in this illustration are a diverse mix of types, including the Avro Lancaster, Handley Page Halifax, and the Short Stirling. The Avro Lancaster, with its distinctive bomb bay doors open, is the most prominent aircraft in the image. This iconic British bomber was the backbone of the RAF's strategic bombing campaign against Germany during World War II. The illustration serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the RAF pilots and crews who risked their lives to bring the war to the heart of the enemy. It also highlights the technological innovations and advancements that were made during the conflict, as both sides sought to gain the upper hand in the skies above Europe. Overall, this historical drawing offers a fascinating glimpse into the air war over Europe during World War II, and the ongoing efforts of the RAF to disrupt German military capabilities and weaken their war machine.
