This picture shows an early version of the B-24 Liberator, probably an RAF Liberator I (although it may also be a LB-30A). This version of the aircraft had the correct combination of the short nose, round engine cowlings and lack of dorsal turret shown on this aircraft.
Consolidated B-24 Liberator (Crowood Aviation), Martin W. Bowman. A well balanced book that begins with a look at the development history of the B-24, before spending nine out of its ten chapters looking at the combat career of the aircraft in the USAAF, the US Navy and the RAF.
