u-boats

According to this only two subs were sunk by the B-18.

If you read the article closely, it indicates that both Digbys and Bolos accounted for four submarines. Another source indicates that the RCAF Eastern Air Command (EAC) Digbys carried out 11 attacks on U-boats. U-520 was confirmed sunk by Flying Officer F. Raymes' crew of No 10 (BR) Sqn, on 30 October 1942. I will alter the article accordingly. Bzuk (talk) 13:58, 21 November 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Here's another account. 2 were sunk by US planes (U-654, U-512) and 1 by the Canadians (U-520). Which was number four?

It seems to be another RCAF attack that is disputed. For the sake of accuracy, I have re-edited that statement. See article. Bzuk (talk) 14:26, 21 November 2007 (UTC).[reply]


light bomber??

i think this is wrong the A planes were considered as like bomber not the B, so i propose to change a medium bomber or simply bomber

It really needs a reliable reference rather than just being changed. MilborneOne (talk) 18:20, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It was developed in response to the same requirement that produced the B-17 so bomber/heavy bomber would be more appropriate. That bomb loads increased several-fold from when the aircraft was designed until retired does not change that.NiD.29 (talk) 19:24, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

when did Douglas stop producing it?

The InfoBox just says Produced 1936- and doesn't give an end date. I am pretty sure they dont still produce the B-18 today, so does anyone know when they stopped producing the plane? 75.54.91.118 (talk) 22:48, 3 March 2012 (UTC) Guest[reply]

It's said that the original Saab logo shows a B-18. Can someone verify? // Liftarn (talk)

It more likely actually shows the Saab 18 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.31.130.20 (talk) 15:58, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

B-18 37-505

The survivors list says that 37-505 was a B-18B, yet an image to the right calls it a B-18A. So, which variant was it?
