  1. Fairey Swordfish Mk III, Imperial War Museum, Duxford. This aircraft was built not by Fairey's but by Blackburn Aircraft Ltd. These were known, colloquially, as 'Blackfish' It is in the markings of No 119 Sqn, RAF which used these obsolescent biplanes on nocturnal sorties over the Scheldt estuary in 1945 to hunt down E-boats and minature submaries of the Kreigsmarine. Hence the all-black colour scheme and the radar carried under the fuselage. #RAF #Swordfish #FaireySwordfish #BlackburnAircraft #Scheldt #Kreigsmarine #1945 #eboat #submarine #biplane #WW2 #avgeek #imperialwarmuseum #Duxford #aviation #royalairforce #Radar
