In 1951 The RAFs first jet powered bomber, the Canberra, entered service with the royal air force. it was unarmed and relied on high speed to escape enemy fighters. The 'English Electric' Canberra was sold to air forces all over the world and a total 1, 347 were built. During its first ten years of service with the RAF, the Canberra broke nineteen flight records and three altitude records including winning the London to New Zealand Air Race in 1953 with a world speed record and the first jet flight over the North Pole in 1954. The Canberra is believed to be the world’s longest serving bomber and most recently provided support during conflicts in the Balkans and Middle East. And, because of its ability to fly at nearly 60, 000 ft., it was also used for clandestine photo reconnaissance work during the Cold War. The aircraft retired from active duty in 2006.
