Re: Twin-boom nightfighters
Hi Bill.
The only twin boom Nightfighters operating over Britain I am aware of was the American P61 Black Widow, however they did not arrive in Europe until either late 1943 or early 1944.
British Nightfighters of the time were either the Bristol Beaufighter or the fantastic Mosquito and neither had the twin boom.
The US Day fighter the P38 did have a twin boom however and was here in March 43, it operated in the day fighter role but another member may be able to say if it also took on a night intruder role either with the USAF or the RAF.
