The Beaufighter was a heavily armed, twin engined fighter first used in 1940 by the RAF against shipping targets. From 1943 onwards, for long range missions RAFCoastal Command flew the final torpedo bomber TF.Mk.X version, equiped with machine guns and rockets. Because of its quiet run-in to the target, the Japanese gave the Beaufighter its nickname 'The Whispering Death'.
