B-25 Mitchell "Executive Sweet" History:
More than 10,000 B-25s were manufactured during the War. The B25
Mitchell was arguably regarded as the best aircraft in its class,
even though it did not have the performance of the Martin bombers.
The B-25 Mitchell, also known as
Executive Sweet, was manufactured by the North American
Aviation. It was an American twin-engine medium bomber. The name
"Mitchell" is after General Billy Mitchell, one of the pioneers of
the United States Air Force. The B25 Mitchell is the only aircraft
named after a specific person. There were 10,000 Executive Sweets
built during its production. It was first used in April 1942 by
Legendary Lt. Col Jimmy Doolittle. It was also frequently used in
Southwest Pacific Theater on tree top level strafing and parafrag.
The B25 Mitchell was also used on Japanese targets in the
SWPA from 1942 to 1945 and it played an important role in sending
the Japanese troops back to their country. Executive Sweet also made
devastating effects on the Central Pacific, Alaska, North Africa,
Mediterranean and China theaters. A lot of revisions were also done
for this aircraft to be more competitive in wars. Thus, the final
version of the Mitchell was the B-25J which has a longer nose
section.
Moreover, the B-25 was a safe aircraft to use.
Controls can be easily maintained down to 145 mph or 23 km per hour.
The only said complaint on the aircraft was its extreme noise
produced by its engines.
