De Havilland Mosquito
de Havilland Mosquito DH.98 adalah pesawat tempur multi-peran Inggris dengan dua orang kru yang bertugas selama Perang Dunia II dan era pasca perang. Mosquito adalah salah satu dari beberapa pesawat operasional garis depan dari era Perang Dunia II yang akan dibangun hampir seluruhnya dari kayu dan, dengan demikian, dijuluki "The Wooden Ajaib". Mosquito juga dikenal sayang sebagai "Mossie" untuk kru nya. Awalnya dipahami sebagai bomber bersenjata cepat, Mosquito disesuaikan dengan banyak peran lain selama perang udara, termasuk rendah sampai menengah ketinggian bomber siang taktis, bomber tinggi ketinggian malam, pathfinder, fighter siang atau malam, fighter-bomber, penyusup, pesawat maritim, dan pesawat foto-pengintai cepat.
