  • The Defensive bombers series’ aim is to make killing AI bomber targets 10x more difficult, because fun is not allowed

    The Handley Page Halifax is a British Royal Air Force (RAF) four-engined heavy bomber of the Second World War. It was developed by Handley Page to the same specification as the contemporary twin-engine Avro Manchester.
