Supermarine Northampton
This aircraft is not real, I just made up a bit of history of it. So this is my biplane it’s called Supermarine Northampton, named after a town in the south of england. The plane was first built in 1942 to help the RAF with the war as long range over water surveillance aircraft. About 250 were built and all were lost in the line of duty.
The paint job has 2 purposes, one so if there is a plane above it the other plane will think that it is the ground and if they are under it they will think that it is the sky. Two from a long way above it looks like there are two planes flying together. So fighters are less likely to attack.
It is armed with 2 wing guns and In bombs it carries 2 torpedoes and 2 bombs. It also has a rear gunner.
