You're Top Poster: #1   | B-25 Mitchell Following Andy's post on the B-25 in RAAF service, I realised we didn't have a Mitchell thread. B-25 Mitchell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia B-25 Mitchell Bomber, "Heavenly Body"

You're Top Poster: #1 | My favourite has to be the XB-25G with its 75mm M4 cannon

You're Top Poster: #1 | My bag Andy. That should be B-25G, not XB. Typo as I was checking the details as I couldn't remember if it was the G or H with the heavier M4 75mm gun. It was the G, as the H had the specially lightened T13E1 75mm.

You're Top Poster: #2 | You'd want that big sod lightened as well.
