The Air Ministry specification B.3/45 had requested the production of four prototypes. Titles: English Electric Canberra No's 1 to 7 The Canberra was a first-generation bomber built in large numbers during the 1950's. In January 1957 India placed a large order for the Canberra; a total of 54 B(I)58 bombers, eight PR57 photo-reconnaissance aircraft, and six T4 training aircraft were ordered, deliveries began in the summer of that same year. In several wars, both of the opposing forces had Canberras in their air forces. [56] Small numbers of specially equipped Canberras were also used for signals intelligence, being operated by 192 Squadron and then 51 Squadron from 1953 to 1976. Specifications. [105], Argentine Air Force Canberra Mk.62 at Museo Nacional de Aeronáutica in Buenos Aires, Preserved PR9 XH135 at Kemble Airport. [27] The aircraft's maximum take-off weight was a little under 25 tonnes. [1] A total of 278 Canberra sorties were flown, dropping 1,439 1000 lb (450 kg) bombs;[85] however low-level strikes by smaller fighters were judged to be more effective than the night time bombing operations performed by both the Canberra and the Vickers Valiant. "EE Canberra in RAF Service: Part One: The Bomber Years". Fitted with underwing hard-points for bombs or rockets and updated avionics and camera fittings. [98][99] Following this engagement, Argentina stopped using the Canberra on such missions.[98]. 540 Squadron RAF began to convert from the Mosquito PR.34. The aircraft was eventually retired by its first operator (the RAF) in June 2006, some 57 years after its first flight. [68] The Canberras were typically operated in the low-level bombing role, taking over South Vietnam's southern most military regions III and IV responsibilities allowing USAF bombers to deploy their aircraft to the Ho Chi Minh trail. Mezi požadavky patřila vynikající bombardovací schopnost ve vysokých výškách za vysoké rychlosti. The English Electric Canberra was a strike-minded, jet-powered medium bomber platform that made up Britain's critical bomber/reconnaissance squadrons of the 1950s and 1960s. An improvised method of starting the engine using compressed air was heavily discouraged by Rolls-Royce, but some operators successfully operated the Canberra's engines in such a manner, the benefit being significant cost savings over cartridges. [49] The interim B(I)6, converted from the B6 by adding provision for a pack of four Hispano 20 mm cannon in the rear bomb bay and underwing pylons for bombs and rockets, entered service in 1955, with the definitive, new build B(I)8, which added a new forward fuselage with a fighter-style canopy for the pilot, entering service in January 1956.

[104] It would fly in front of the aircraft being tested which would fly into the artificial cloud created by the sprayed water to induce icing. The Cyprus based squadrons and one of the RAF Germany squadrons disbanded in 1969, with the Singapore based unit followed in 1970. 4 Hispano cannons in bomb bay gun-pack, single hard-point under each wing for bombs or unguided rockets, LABS (Low-Altitude Bombing System) for nuclear and / or conventional bomb delivery. [7] On 7 January 1946, the Ministry of Supply placed a contract for the development and production of four English Electric A.1 aircraft. It could fly at a higher altitude than any other bomber throughout the 1950s and by 1958 it had set nineteen point-to-point speed records and three height records, including one of 70,310 ft (21,430 m) in 1957 - See table below. 540 Squadron RAF at London Heathrow in June 1953, The PR7 variant of the Canberra, equipped with longer, fuel-filled wings and the Avon 109 engines, executed a 1953 reconnaissance flight over the Soviet rocket launch and development site at Kapustin Yar, although the UK government has never admitted the existence of such a flight. All the prototypes were built on jigs. [67] In 1967, the RAAF deployed eight Canberras from a squadron of B20s to the Vietnam War. Refurbished ex RAF B(I)8 bombers for Peru. RAF and export to India (11), Peru (9) and Venezuela. In total 1,376 English Electric Canberra aircraft were built. [15] It entered service in December 1952 when No. [34][N 1] Many Canberras that were stationed at remote overseas locations did not undertake modifications to become nuclear-capable until as late as 1957. The English Electric Canberra is an all-metal, semi-monocoque construction with a canti-levered wing and a wooden vertical stabiliser. Halvorson, Lance.

National Air and Space Museum, Cerrillos Santiago de Chile. A first generation British jet-powered medium bomber, the English Electric Canberra was designed by W. E. W. 'Teddy' Petter. Rather than devote space and weight to defensive armament which historically could not overcome purpose-designed fighter aircraft, the Canberra was designed to fly fast and high enough to avoid air-to-air combat entirely. 451 'Canberra' aircraft were also built under licence in the USA: 403 in the USA by the Glenn L Martin Company and designated as the B-57 ‘Canberra’ in many versions. [40] The improved Canberra B6, with more powerful engines and a greater fuel capacity, started to supplement the B2s in the UK based squadrons of Bomber Command from June 1954, when they replaced 101 Squadrons B2s. [47], British Government public information film on the Canberra and its contribution to NATO, The Vickers Valiant entered service in 1955,[48] capable of carrying much heavier weapon loads (including the Blue Danube nuclear weapon) over longer ranges than the Canberra. The English Electric “Canberra” is a first-generation jet-powered light bomber manufactured in large numbers through the 1950s. [55] Canberras were used for reconnaissance during the Bosnian War during the 1990s, where they were used to locate mass graves and during the Kosovo War in 1999.

English Electric Canberra B.2/B(I).8 (WV787) [@ Newark Air Museum] With the Gloster Meteor and the de Havilland Vampire in RAF service, it became obvious that the next step was to produce a jet bomber and in 1944, The Ministry of Aircraft Procurement issued Specification B.3/45 calling for design concepts for a fast, high-altitude, jet-powered medium bomber. [32] Anti-personnel flechette bombs were tested successfully from the Canberra by Rhodesia, but not used operationally due to international agreements. [13] By the time the first prototype had flown, the Air Ministry had already ordered 132 production aircraft in bomber, reconnaissance, and training variants. Proving to be fairly free of problems, this first flight was almost immediately followed by the manufacturing of production Canberras, entering squadron service with RAF No. [53][N 2] The RAF used Canberras to search for hidden arms dumps using false-colour photography during Operation Motorman in July 1972, when the British Army re-took Irish republican held "no go areas" in Belfast and Derry.

[30] Two bomb-bays are housed within the fuselage, these are normally enclosed by conventional clam-shell doors; this was substituted for a rotating door on the Martin-built B-57 Canberras. The English Electric Canberra is a British first-generation jet-powered light bomber manufactured in large numbers through the 1950s. [4], In 1944, Westland Aircraft's technical director and chief designer W. E. W. Petter prepared a design study for a twin-engined fighter bomber, the P.1056, based on two fuselage-mounted Metrovick F.2/4 "Beryl" engines. [81] The most audacious use of the bomber was in the "Raid on Badin" during the Second Kashmir War, when the Indian Air Force sent in the Canberra to attack a critical Pakistani radar post in West Pakistan. [9], Canberra B2 WH649 of 139 Squadron RAF in 1953, The Canberra had a simple design, looking somewhat like a scaled-up Gloster Meteor with a mid wing. [64][N 4] The first Australian-built Canberra first flew on 29 May 1953 at Avalon and was delivered to the RAAF for service trials a few weeks later. [3] In addition, two British-built Canberras are registered to High Altitude Mapping Missions, Inc. of Spokane, Washington. The prototype proved vice-free and required only a few modifications. It had been en route to bomb British troops at Port Harriet House when it was struck by a Sea Dart missile fired from HMS Cardiff. Due to its ability to evade the early jet interceptors, and its significant performance advancement over contemporary piston-engined bombers, the Canberra was a popular export product and served with many nations. The Canberra proved to be a useful platform for such work and was used by a number of British tests and trials establishments. At the time, the company had little experience in the design of military aircraft, having spent most of their formative years during WW2 building aircraft for the likes of Handley Page and De Havilland. In 1944, English Electric started to design an unarmed, high altitude, fast jet bomber and reconnaissance aircraft to replace the Mosquito. Peruvian Air Force Canberras flew combat sorties against Ecuadorian positions during the Cenepa War in 1995. The raid was a complete success, the radars in Badin having been badly damaged by the bombing and put out of commission. Each crew member has a Martin-Baker ejection seat except in the B(I)8 and its export versions where the navigator makes use of an escape hatch and parachute. "Martin B-57 Night Intruders & General Dynamics RB-57F". [135] These two aircraft were previously operated by Air Platforms Inc in Lakeport California.

More Canberra aircraft are in service with foreign countries than the Viscount, which holds the record for British civil aircraft. Based in Raleigh, NC. [44] The aircraft were no longer required after June 1956, following the introduction of the US Lockheed U-2 purpose-built reconnaissance aircraft; Project Robin was then terminated. Refurbished (ex-RAF) B.2 bombers for Argentina. [citation needed], Two American-built WB-57Fs are still operated by NASA for high altitude research,[131] as well as providing electronic communication (Battlefield Airborne Communications Node or BACN) testing for deployment to Afghanistan. 4326B-P.N. [61] The RAAF decided to acquire the Canberra to replace or complement the Avro Lincoln,[N 3] though fears were raised that the new design was not especially advanced. "Canberra ... forty years and thriving still". Canberras served in the Suez Crisis, the Vietnam War, the Falklands War, the Indo-Pakistani Wars, and numerous African conflicts. Manual: (1953) A.P. As well as those operated by English Electric, a number of engine manufacturers were also loaned Canberras as engine test beds; Armstrong Siddeley for the Sapphire, Bristol Siddeley for the Olympus, de Havilland Engine Company for the Gyron Junior turbojet and Rolls-Royce Limited for the Avon. [62][66][76], The Canberra was the backbone of the Indian Air Force (IAF) for bombing raids and photo-reconnaissance for many decades. Due to poor visibility, a road outside of the base was bombed, instead of the runway where PAF B-57 bombers were parked.[83].

Based on B.2 with new features introduced on the B.5, including RA7 engines and wing integral fuel tanks. [79] A total of 12 more Canberras were ordered in September 1957, as many as 30 more may have also been purchased by 1962. Among the companies short-listed to proceed with development studies was English Electric, a well-established industrial manufacturer with very little aircraft design experience, though when a desperate need for bombers arose during the early years of the Second World War, English Electric had built the Handley Page Hampden and later the Handley Page Halifax four-engined bomber under licence. Also Target Facilities. Read reviews from world’s largest community for readers. [104] It next was moved to the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment where it was modified to be used as a water-spray tanker aircraft for de-icing trials. The manufacturer specified that Coffman engine starters should be used to start the engine. The PR9s were fitted with special LOROP (Long-Range Optical Photography) cameras, reportedly based on those used by the Lockheed U-2, to allow high-altitude of targets deep into Eastern Europe while flying along the inner German border, as well as infrared linescan cameras for low level night reconnaissance. [90] Both Rhodesia and South Africa used Canberras in their respective Bush Wars; numerous aircraft were lost in the conflicts. After 50 years of service, the Canberra was finally retired by the IAF on 11 May 2007.[84]. 12 of the 106 built were by Shorts. The Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland considered the Canberra an important objective to holding greater diplomatic sway in the African continent, and ongoing negotiations over the Baghdad treaty, and a step towards decolonisation. x. Fighter Jets. Refurbished and upgraded ex RAF PR.7s for India. The Canberras were given the designation Tp 52, and taken into service as "testing aircraft", until they were replaced by two Tp 85 Caravelles in 1971.

"Canberra PR.9: Supreme Reconnaissance Platform". Offset canopy with a hinged nose to allow fitment of an ejection seat for the navigator. W.E.W. [62] While Australia never introduced nuclear weapons into service, the Canberra's ability to carry such a payload was a factor in its acquisition;[63] Australia's planned force of 48 Canberras, with the potential for being nuclear-armed, was viewed as far more potent and deterring than the entire RAAF's wartime forces of 254 heavy bombers. Note that refurbished ex RAF aircraft that did not change mark number have been excluded from the lists. B.2 converted as electronic warfare training variant for surface-based missile operators, airborne fighter and airborne early warning (AEW) crew training of  handling jamming aircraft.

After an extremely frustrating period of post-war austerity, the English Electric Canberra was finally completed, making its first flight in 1949. WH773 was the first production PR.7 Canberra. Warned by either radar or agents inside the British government, the Soviets damaged and almost shot down the aircraft. Target tug conversion of B.2 for the RAF and Royal Navy. [74] The Canberra was incapable of providing adequate coverage of Indonesia from Australian bases, and was evaluated as having a "very low" chance of survival if it encounted modern fighters like the MiG-17. The fuselage was circular in cross section, tapered at both ends and, cockpit aside, entirely without protrusions; the line of the large, low-aspect ratio wings was broken only by the tubular engine nacelles. [45] These RAF Canberra overflights were later featured in the 1994 BBC Timewatch episode; "Spies in the Sky", and included interviews with some of the Soviet MiG-15 pilots who had attempted to intercept them. 3 Sqn, RAF Kuantan, 1964 Les Bywaters, author of this site, passed away on 13th January 2009.
