Swordfish
 
There is photo of the Fairey Swordfish with the anti submarine radar under it's belly. I would like to know more about this plane and it's operational use.

Pilot:

You have asked a very broad question that is difficult to answer properly in a forum like this.

Some specific information about the Swordfish aircraft and its role in operations against the U boats is available at the excellent uboat.net site:

http://www.uboat.net/allies/aircraft/swordfish.htm

The above page includes references for further reading and also includes links to pages that discuss the ASV radars fitted to Swordfish aircraft.

I'd suggest the above as a starting point on what is a big topic.

Cheers
