The Bristol Beaufort is a British-made medium-range torpedo-bomber, entirely made of metal. The aircraft was designed for the Coastal Command in 1936 and the prototype's flight took place on October 15, 1938.

• Only two versions of the aircraft were built: Mk.I (955 copies) and Mk.II (450 units).
• An air pocket was placed at the bottom of the fuselage, extending buoyancy in the event of a sea crash.
• Equipped with the necessary equipment for ditching, including a lifeboat.
• After the outbreak of the war, the aircraft was also equipped with radar, which increased the aircraft's efficiency in tracking.
