The Douglas Boston, known in United States service as the Douglas A-20 Havoc, was an American twin-engine light bomber and attack aircraft operated extensively by the Royal Air Force, Commonwealth, and Allied air forces during the Second World War. Developed by Douglas Aircraft Company, the Douglas Model 7B prototype first flew on 26 Oct 1938, with refined DB-7 development aircraft following in early 1939. After the fall of France in 1940, aircraft originally ordered by the French were diverted to Britain, with the Boston and Havoc entering RAF operational service in early 1941. In RAF and Commonwealth service, bomber variants were known as the Boston, while night fighter and intruder variants were generally known as the Havoc. Powered by two Wright R-2600 radial engines, the aircraft earned a strong reputation for speed, ruggedness, and effectiveness in low-level attack operations.

The Boston served extensively with RAF and Commonwealth squadrons in Britain, Europe, North Africa, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific, carrying out low-level bombing, intruder, strike, and tactical support missions against Axis targets. The Royal Australian Air Force operated 69 Boston and Havoc aircraft in the South West Pacific, primarily with No. 22 Squadron RAAF. The type also became associated with one of the RAAF’s most famous wartime actions when Flight Lieutenant William Ellis Newton was awarded the Victoria Cross for repeated low-level attacks against Japanese positions around Salamaua, New Guinea, during Mar 1943, including operations involving Boston A28-3. Sadly, Newton was shot down while flying Boston A28-8 on Mar 18ᵗʰ, 1943 during another attack mission. He survived the crash and was captured by Japanese forces, but was later executed in captivity.

A total of 7,478 aircraft were built across all DB-7, Boston, Havoc, and A-20 variants, making it one of the most widely produced Allied light bombers of the war.
