History of the E.E. Canberra B. Mk-20/Mk-62 Bomber

The English Electric Canberra, manufactured by the United Kingdom since 1949, was one of the most important jet bombers of the Cold War era. The Mk-20 and Mk-62 versions were operated by the Australian (RAAF) and Argentine air forces. The Canberra took part in numerous operations around the world—Australian units used it during the Vietnam War, and export versions also served in conflicts in South America, including the Falklands (Malvinas) War.
The aircraft was produced and used from the early 1950s, remaining in front-line service until the beginning of the 21st century, making it one of the longest-serving bombers in the world.
