The North American B-25 Mitchell is an American medium bomber that was introduced in 1941 and named in honor of Major General William "Billy" Mitchell, a pioneer of U.S. military aviation. The majority of B-25s in American service were used in the war against Japan in Asia and the Pacific. Used by Allied air forces, the B-25 served in every theater of World War II, and after the war ended, many remained in service, operating for four decades. The RAF received nearly 900 Mitchells, using them to replace Douglas Bostons, Lockheed Venturas, and Vickers Wellington bombers. The USSR received a total of 862 B-25s. Produced in numerous variants, nearly 10,000 B-25s were built.
