Swordfish were in front line operation at the start and finish of WW2. They were still operational when their replacement, the 'Albacore' came and went. The Spitfire might be the RAF's icon, and won the Battle of Britain, but they have the Swordfish along with the RN, and MN to thank for getting their fuel through to them.
