B-25-J Mitchell


The B-25J Mitchell is a twin-engine medium bomber developed by North American Aviation and best known for its service during World War II. As the final and most produced variant of the B-25, the J model featured improved defensive armament, including up to 14 .50 caliber machine guns, and could carry a bomb load of up to 3,000 pounds. Renowned for its durability, versatility, and precision, the B-25J was used in a variety of rolesโ€”from level bombing and ground attack to reconnaissance and anti-shipping missions. The aircraft gained fame during the Doolittle Raid in 1942, where an earlier B-25 variant became the first U.S. bomber to strike Japan, boosting American morale early in the war.
