Bomber Command Lancaster Bomber Fine China Mug by Leonardo is 3.75"/9.5cm tall, with a 3.3"/8.5cm diameter and features the iconic WWII Avro Lancaster bomber aircraft famous for its part played in the battle of the air war campaign of WWII. This heavy bomber was developed from the twin engined Avro Manchester bomber and when married with 4 Rolls-Royce Merlin engines made it a formidable weapon with a high load carrying capacity. The crew of 7-8 heroically did 30 combat missions and pathfinder crews completed 45, and, amazingly it was common for crews to volunteer for a second bombing tour. Every officially RAF licensed mug contributes through the license fee to the Bomber Command Memorial & Maintenance Appeal Fund.
