The Fairey Albacore was a British torpedo-bomber and reconnaissance aircraft from the Second World War, used between 1939 and 1944 by the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm. The design replaced the popular Swordfish and took part in, among others, the Battle of the Atlantic, operations in the Mediterranean Sea, and during the Allied landings in North Africa (Operation Torch). Historically, the Albacore played an important role as a versatile carrier-based aircraft; its enclosed cockpit was a novelty among aircraft of this type.
