Fighter/Interceptor - The AVRO Arrow. Which is a simultaneously both a symbol of amazing technological achievement, and monstrous political ineptitude.

Yeah, I edited my post a little before you posted, It's not a bomber, that's why I didn't get it at first

how about dis one Raptor1?

I know, but it was near as big as some bombers of that era :D And since it was designed to be capable of carrying unguided Genie missles with 1.5kT nuke warheads, it could have fired those at anything. Heck, the internal munitions bay was big enough to carry just about anything!

Junkers Ju-89, Joe

Seafarer, I suppose, But by this standard you can call pretty much anything a bomber, I can say a C-17 is a bomber if I take a bomb and ram it into the cargo hold

Guess this one - it is a bomber
lol

Have fun.

wooly, Is that a Romanian Bristol Blenheim?

Xabba, Dassault Rafale?

Nope
Tis Romanian markings though

True, but then they do use C-130's to drop daisy cutter (BLU-82Bs) and MOAB (GBU-43Bs) from. Are they not bombers, if being used to drop bombs? Was not the F-105 one of the most used bombers in Vietnam. Where do you draw the line with planes officially catagorized as fighter/bomber, strike-bomber, or cargo-bomber?

Was the De Havilland Mosquito a fighter, night fighter, bomber or what (my answer is all 3).

I say if they are used or intended to be used to drop bombs, then they are bombers? WWII saw to that, with the distinction of bomber becoming one of operation, not (necessarily) design. So we have strategic bombers (which this thread has mainly posted), but also tactical bombers, strike fighters (or fighter bomber if you prefer), but all are still bombers, to my mind.

Hmm, True, But the Arrow was never intended to be a bomber or carry bombs, You can call a non-bomber a bomber if it actually ever bombed anything or was designed with that ability in mind

But it's all very complicated, so...w/e

Anyway, that Romanian plane, Ju-88?

Ooooo, Xabba, Mirage IV?

Nope.

@BBW: its an italian design the Savoia-marchetti?

HunterICX

That thing had 3 engines

EDIT: Hmm, Is there a third engine there?, I'm too tired to tell

not all Savoias had 3 engines, they had more designs;)

like the Savoia-Marchetti S.M.79B
