4000 lb “Cookie” bomb

Cookie bomb for Lancaster

WAAF Steers 4000 lb Cookie under Bomb Bay of RAF Lancaster 1943

The capacious bomb bay made the aircraft an excellent bomb-carrier. The Lancaster retained this bomb bay from Manchester, giving it great flexibility, especially when compared to the Halifax and Stirling with their sectioned bomb bays.
