The De Havilland Mosquito made of wood was designed based on
high-speed bomber shaking off fighter. The design of the Mosquito was
got in shape in 1939. The De Havilland had experienced producing DH88
Comet made of wood before, therefore they paid attention that the
surface of wooden wing could be finished smoothly and the amount of
aluminum could be saved. Two of Rolls Royce Merlin engines were selected
as the source of power and the wood was used as the material of this
fuselage. The parts with the metal were only the parts of the periphery
of the engine and the landing gear. At the first time, the Air Ministry
was passive adopting the Mosquito because of wooden and no machine guns.
However the Mosquito made a maiden flight with the maximum speed of
630 km when the Spitfire had the maximum speed of 580 km at those time.
Therefore a lot of Mosquito were suddenly requested. After many types
of the Mosquito were produced, Night-Fighter Mk. II armed with 7.7 mm
machine guns on its nose and A.I. Mk.IV radar made an appearance. This
Mosquito brought its ability into full play in attacking an airfield and
intercepting raiding bombers. Also Fighting Bomber Mk. VI armed with
four 225 kg bombs and eight of rocket bombs was arranged as the actual
fighting in Mar. 1943. This type played havoc with theland forces, the
battleships and the U-boat. Furthermore it was active in attacking the
railroad and its bridge at Burmese front line, giving a blow to Japanese
army. The mosquitos wooden structure was strong against being shot,
therefore it held an established position from the pilots with the special mission.
