Blenheim attacks submarine

This is some stock footage of a (simulated I am sure) air attack on a Japanese submarine I edited together. Not great stuff but it seemed a shame to waste it. Location and date unknown, also unknown is what the footage was originally intended for.

Wrong. The Finns used Blenheims, not Germans. Finns even built most of the Blenheims used there. And the swastika that was the FAF emblem those days, was not the same, as the German swastika. Finns used swastikas in FAF-planes since the beginning of the century, it was the personal emblem on Swedish count Von Rosen, who donated the first aeroplane to Finnish army in 1918 with a swastika painted in it.

This is a Blenheim Mk V being flown by one of the RAF squadrons unlucky enough to operate it in 1943 during the Tunisian campaign - hence the shorts.

Looks like you had to have mountain climbing experience to get into it.

My modest opinion : This bomber is not a Blenheim, its cabin is very longer and artillery position is most ahead than the british Blenheim , This plane is a australian Bolingbroke designed and built in Australia based in Blenheim and made with several england components .Is a propandist false Film. forgive my poor english. I am a spanish talking.The engines also are not british but US Writhgt or Prat&Witney.

@speedofc: Many thanks for your kind reply and many, many thanks for serving our country overseas in Vietnam, surely one of the darkest episodes in our national history, for want of courage over here to do "the right thing" in victory and defeat.

@divisioneight How ironic. I'm a Viet Nam Vet and those WWII guys really had it rough. For that matter, anybody that serves in combat has it rough. There is a special on Cable and Satellite called "Wartorn " about veterans who server during the Civil War thru the current war in Iraq. It discusses the effects of PTSD war on soldiers. A must see. Semper Fi..
