De HAVILLAND DH98 MOSQUITO: The de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito was a British multi-role combat aircraft that served during the Second World War and the Post-war era. It was known affectionately as the "Mossie" to its crews and was also nicknamed "The Wooden Wonder". It saw service with the Royal Air Force (RAF) and many other air forces in the European theatre, the Pacific theatre of Operations and the Mediterranean Theatre, as well as during the postwar period. Constructed primarily of plywood with a balsa wood core, it had excellent speed, altitude and range. There were 42 versions of the 7,780 Mosquitos that were built. The Mosquito served as a bomber, fighter, night fighter, high-altitude fighter, maritime strike aircraft and photo-reconnaissance plane, and it was even used to fly a wartime airline connection over enemy territory between Britain and Sweden..

When the Mosquito entered production in 1941, it was one of the fastest operational aircraft in the world. Entering widespread service in 1942, the Mosquito supported RAF strategic night fighter defence forces in the United Kingdom from Luftwaffe raids, most notably defeating the German aerial offensive Operation Steinbock in 1944. Offensively, the Mosquito units also conducted night time fighter sweeps in indirect and direct protection of RAF Bomber Command's heavy bombers to help reduce RAF bomber losses in 1944 and 1945. The Mosquito increased German night fighter losses to such an extent the Germans were said to have awarded two victories for shooting one down. Condition: “MPC was notorious for its quality control.
