Re: RAF and dive-bombing.
Bill, the RCAF in Canada were seriously considering a squadron or two of the Vengeance's on the west coast for work up in the Aleutians and the same for a couple of the six squadrons that were sent over in late '43. For some reason this never materialized.
If memory serves me right, the RCAF in Canada, were expecting to receive 60 airframes from the Americans. Again, you go with what you got and at the time, the Spitfire, Typhoon and Tempest were the best options available for ground attack. Stephen
