My favorite plane of the war was the Mosquito fighter bomber, faster than most fighters of the day even when loaded and accidentally the first stealth airplane. Twin Rolls Royce Merlin engines, and the airframe mostly wood.
Yes, you are right about the A-bomb
As to the Mosquito, again one of the most elegant and deadly aircraft in the war much like the USA Mitchell only more refined. One of my favorites as well.
