B. Mk IV Bulged bomb bay
'AZ-X' DZ637 Series II of Number 627 Squadron, No5 group, flown by Fg Off Ronnie F Pate and Flt Lt Edward A Jackson, Woodhall Spa , 3rd July 1944. A special bulged bomb bay was added to these aircraft to enable them to carry a 'Cookie' 4,000lb bomb. AZ-X participated in the famous raid on Gestapo headquarters in Oslo which was a typical example of the prowess of the Mosquito in low-level pin-point bombing raids.
BOAC Unarmed high speed courier
G-AGFV High speed courier aircraft operated by British Overseas Airways (BOAC) and adapted to carry one passenger in an extremely compact compartment in the bomb bay on high speed envoy missions. The BOAC markings were a pale attempt at trying to convey to the enemy that the aircraft was unarmed. The Mosquito's enviable high speed performance was a very handy defence.
B. Mk IV Highball
DK290/G A&AEE, Boscombe Down April 1943 was a one-off conversion for testing of Barnes Wallis' spinning bomb theory by A&AEE. Highballs were to be used by 618 Squadron in a secretly planned attack on the German Battleship, Tirpitz. However supplies of the aircraft arrived too late and the attack was shelved. 617 Squadron Lancaster’s eventually completed the task of sinking the famous battleship, ironically with Mosquito Pathfinders in attendance
B. Mk XVI Bulged bomb bay - Perspex nose
'P3-D' ML942 of number 692 Squadron, No8 group (PFF) RAF, Gravely, March 1944.
"The Mosquito’s visual models are astonishing for their detail, accuracy and correct perspective... It looks good, flies nice, sounds great... Mosquito is highly recommended and is a product that will provide endless hours of interest and fun... Good frame rates compared to other complex add on products" Avsim.com

PR. Mk XVI
'S' N5591 25th BG, Photo-reconnaissance, 8th USAAF 1944. Many international forces used the Mosquito. The USAAF deployed Mosquitoes in photo-reconnaissance roles. This example flew with the 25th Bomber Group of the ‘Mighty 8th’.
'R' NS517
Photo-reconnaissance aircraft of Armee de l'Air, Group 1/31 'Lorraine'. Many international forces used the Mosquito. The French AirForce deployed Mosquitoes in photo-reconnaissance roles in locations such as Africa and Morocco.
Mk 30 Radar
'K' 1 Swedish Air Force with Perspex nose. The Mk30 Night Fighter variant had a radar array fitted in the nose. The array was serviced by opening side hatches and the nose cone. Some examples were produced with a clear Perspex dome over the array. Mosquitoes were formidable night fighters, aided by surprisingly effective (though primitive by today's standards) radar equipment. The version depicted is a Swedish machine, now preserved in a museum.
