The Saab 37 Viggen is a Swedish single-seat, single-engine, short-medium range combat aircraft. Development work on the type was initiated at Saab in 1952 and resulting aircraft performed its first flight on 8 February 1967. Viggen entered service in 21 June 1971. It was the first canard design produced in quantity.

The medium twin-engined Vickers Wellington bomber was regarded as the true “workhorse” of RAF Bomber Command in the early stages of the Second World War. Between 1939 and 1942, alongside the Handley Page Hampden and Armstrong Whitworth Whitley, it was the Wellington that carried the main weight of the RAF’s growing bombing offensive against the Third Reich. The type also served in Coastal Command units in the fight against U-boats and enemy shipping, and was extensively used for training RAF bomber crews. Production continued until October 1945, with a total of 11,462 built.The Wellington also became the backbone of all four Polish bomber squadrons – 300, 301, 304 and 305 – as well as the OTU training establishments, where Polish crews gained their combat proficiency.This volume in the Polish Wings series presents the history of the Vickers Wellington bombers in the Ic and II versions in Polish Air Force service in exile between 1940 and 1942.
