EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the Armstrong Whitworth AW 38 Whitley V, an obsolete bomber that was already outdated by the outbreak of World War II. The Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft Company produced the Whitley as a medium bomber for the Royal Air Force (RAF) in the late 1930s. However, by the time of the war, the Whitley V was considered outgunned and under-armored compared to the latest German aircraft. Despite its limitations, the Whitley V saw extensive use in the early stages of the war, primarily for night operations. Its large size and twin engines made it an effective transport plane, capable of carrying a significant payload of bombs or troops. The RAF used the Whitley V to conduct bombing raids against German targets, including railways, factories, and airfields. The Whitley V's role in the war was significant, as it provided valuable experience for the RAF crews and paved the way for the development of more advanced bombers. However, its obsolescence was evident, and it was eventually phased out of frontline service in favor of more modern aircraft. This photograph is a reminder of the history of aviation during World War II and the role that even obsolete planes played in the conflict. The Armstrong Whitworth AW 38 Whitley V may have been outdated, but it was a crucial part of the RAF's arsenal during the early stages of the war.
