The Halifax is regarded as one of the most famous British World War II bombers. It was the second four-engine heavy bomber to go into active service with RAF Bomber Command in 1941. Although many problems arose during its development and the Halifax was always overshadowed by the Avro Lancaster, in the course of the war it ultimately proved to be the best-known Allied bomber. In addition to its principal role with Bomber Command (BI/BII versions) it was often flown by RAF Coastal Command (GR II) and Transport Command in the Near, Middle and Far East. It had a top speed of 420 km/h and a bomb load of 6,000 kg. The last Halifax was in service with Coastal Command until 1952.
