Book Synopsis
The English Electric Canberra was a British first-generation, jet-powered medium bomber, and was developed during the mid- to late 1940s in response to a 1944 Air Ministry requirement for a successor to the de Havilland Mosquito. Among the performance requirements for the type was an outstanding high-altitude bombing capability and high speed, and these were partly accomplished by making use of newly developed jet-propulsion technology.
