The Handley Page Halifax was a four-engine heavy bomber developed for the Royal Air Force in the late 1930s. It first flew on 25 October 1939 and entered service in November 1940 with No. 35 Squadron. Initially powered by Rolls-Royce Merlins and later by Bristol Hercules radials, the Halifax flew in multiple variants across strategic bombing, maritime patrol, paratroop deployment, and special operations roles.

A total of 6,178 Halifaxes were built. It flew over 82,000 sorties, dropped more than 224,000 tons of bombs, and took part in major campaigns across Europe and the Mediterranean. While often overshadowed by the Lancaster, it was praised for its versatility, robust construction, and effectiveness in non-bombing roles such as glider towing and SOE operations.

Later marks served with Coastal Command, Transport Command, and foreign air forces including France, Egypt, and Pakistan. Some Halifaxes flew supply missions during the Berlin Airlift. The last were retired in 1961. Despite high losses during the war, the Halifax earned respect as a true workhorse of RAF Bomber Command.
