Historical description of the Fairey Barracuda

The Fairey Barracuda was a British torpedo-bomber operated by the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm from 1943–1945, during World War II. This all-metal aircraft with a three-man crew was used to attack enemy ships, especially during the Battle of the Atlantic and operations in the Mediterranean Sea and Indian Ocean. The Fairey Barracuda made history during the famous attacks on the German battleship Tirpitz.

• Precision masks cut from high-quality self-adhesive foil.
