I started playing the World of Warplanes online simulation by the Wargaming Video Game Company and the Beaufighter is one of the available aircrafts and I had never seen them until then. Such a beautiful design. This is a wonderful image of a small flight of them. Great job!

Yes it was a terrific multi-role combat aircraft with a massive punch. Did a fine job until superseded by the Mosquito.
