Only two RAF squadrons were equipped with the Whirlwind, and despite successful use as a fighter-bomber it was withdrawn from service in 1943.

Ah the Whirlwind, the most underestimated and under-developed British aircraft of WWII. It could have been the bane of the Luftwaffe (and was for short time). Great shot.
