Default Re: Fairey swordfish

Hi pat
Ok maybe I should have said
'a mine, such as the A MARK I, as a bomb, represents a flight of pure fantasy '
or
'this mine as a bomb represents a flight of pure fantasy'
instead of
'a mine as a bomb represents a flight of pure fantasy'
the first sentence is the meaning I intended.
1500 lb and 750 lb bomb carrying swordfish remain a fantasy. You or anyone else, have yet to show that the mine can be, or ever was, used as a bomb, the "A MARK I" not some german mine.
People will use it, if your looking for a big bomb in your fighter bombers youll pick this one, its the biggest and clearly shouldnt be there.
If you buy Maus everyone knows its a what if If you buy either of these swordfish you think you have a valid piece of kit.
Best Regards Chuck.
