The highly classified work of the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment at Boscombe Down involved some of the most intense aircraft and armament testing ever undertaken. More than 1,500 British, American and German aircraft passed through, from the Aerovan, Barracuda and Nomad to the Wellington, Mosquito, Halifax, Ju 88 and Fw 190, and this account describes the unusual variants, the armament trials and the machines that remained purely experimental.
