Description: | A Fairey Swordfish on anti-submarine patrol over convoy RA 57, March 1944. This aircraft would have been based aboard the escort carrier HMS Chaser. Swordfish from the Chaser damaged one U boat [U 472] and sank another [U 366], thus making a significant contribution to the defence of the convoy.
This is a copy of an original negative held at the Imperial War Museum (A22467).
