The Lockheed Ventura, also known as the Lockheed B-34 Lexington, was a twin engine medium bomber of World War II, used by United States and British Commonwealth forces in several guises, including maritime patrol. It was used in daylight attacks against occupied Europe, but proved to have weaknesses and were removed from bomber duty to be replaced by the de Havilland Mosquito in the summer of 1943.
