The Blackburn Botha z
The Blackburn Roc was closely followed by the Blackburn Botha and it turned out to be another wasted effort. The Blackburn suffered a series of humiliations through the greater World War II period. The Botha had been fitted with a duel-engine system and torpedoes, The Botha turned out to be a very high maintenance plane and required a whopping four pilots to be properly operated. With four pilots on board, the plane became overloaded and the torpedo armaments were disabled and the plane crashed on many occasions.
