Powered by four Rolls-Royce Merlins and built to carry a bomb load no rival could match, it flew the Dambusters raid with 617 Squadron in May 1943, sank the Tirpitz, and delivered the war's heaviest conventional weapons in the Tallboy and 22,000-lb Grand Slam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eJust under 7,400 were built by A.V. Roe and its subcontractors. Only two remain airworthy today: PA474 with the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, and FM213 with the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum. When either passes overhead at a flypast, the sound of four Merlins alone stops crowds. A piece for anyone who follows the history of Bomber Command and recognises what this aircraft was called on to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAircraft quick facts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAircraft: Avro Lancaster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Four-engine heavy bomber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst flight: 9 January 1941 (prototype BT308)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEntered service: February 1942 (No. 44 Squadron)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop speed: Mach 0.35 (around 282 mph \/ 454 km\/h)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngines: 4 × Rolls-Royce Merlin (Mk I\/III\/X); Bristol Hercules in the Mk II variant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction: 7,377 aircraft built\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: A.V.
