The four-engined Avro Lancaster was without doubt the most famous of all RAF heavy bombers of WW2.

It formed the backbone of night bomber offensives deep into Germany starting in 1942 and gained notoriety for sinking the Tirpitz and destroying the Möhne and Eder dams.

The Lancaster was capable of carrying bomb loads up to 9,980 kg, the heaviest single bomb being the Grand Slam .

It saw service in 68 RAF Bomber Command squadrons until 1945 and flew a total of more than 156,000 sorties.

Of a total of 7,300 aircraft produced, almost half were lost during these missions.

Today, only two airworthy examples remain, one in the UK and one in Canada.
