The Douglas A-20G Havoc

The Douglas A-20 was an American twin-engine military aircraft used during the Second World War. Called Havoc by US forces and Boston by several Commonwealth air forces, it served on many fronts in attack and tactical-bombing roles.

The A-20G replaced the glazed bomber nose with a solid nose carrying several forward-firing machine guns. A dorsal turret with twin machine guns protected the rear sector. This configuration was suited to low-level ground attacks alongside its bomb load.

In the Pacific, the A-20G served with American forces and the Royal Australian Air Force. In Europe, it operated from bases in Britain and Italy and later from French airfields following the Allied landings.
