The Vickers Wellington was the backbone of RAF Bomber Command in the early years of the Second World War, and with more than 11,400 built it was the most produced British bomber of the conflict. Barnes Wallis’s geodetic lattice structure let the “Wimpy” absorb heavy battle damage and still bring its crew home. The Mk.IC was the most numerous early variant, flying night raids over Germany until the four-engine heavies took over in 1942.
