The development of the multirole Mosquito, from its original bomber and photoreconnaissance operational function to that of a night-fighter and fighter-bomber configuration, was initiated by the latent threat of a renewal of the 194041 Blitz.
Over the ensuing years of WWII, the Mosquito attacked the enemy with sorties across a 24-hour time span, challenging the GermanNachtjagdwith aerial interceptions, as well as attacks onLuftwaffe airfields.
Pinpoint assaults on specialist targets was another aspect of Mosquito fighter-bomber operations, whose destructive effect on the Axis was constantly felt.
Also covered are the Mosquito’s operations with the Fleet Air Arm, as well as postwar use.
