The Liberator B.Mk.VI was the RAF designation for the B-24J, of which 390 were supplied to the RAF. Total number of Liberators supplied to the RAF of all variants was 1,694. By April 1942, No.215 Squadron had assembled atAsanol in India, as part of the RAF's South East Asia Command equipped with Wellingtons and commenced bombing operations over Japanese-occupied targets in Burma. It re-equipped with Liberator Mk.VIs in June 1944, operating from several bases, including Chakala, Jessore and Digri and was joined by Nos. 99 and 356 Squadrons, also equipped with Liberators, until April 1945 when they were replaced by Dakotas in the supply-dropping role for the 14th Army to clear Burma of Japanese, resulting in the capture of Rangoon.

F-86A Sabres from the 4th Fighter Group were rushed to Korea in November/December 1950 and immediately demonstrated their superiority over the MiG-15. Several 4th Group Sabres flew close air support and armed reconnaissance air-to-ground missions in January 1951. Ordnance consisted of two 5" HVARs in addition to the normal six .50 calibre machine guns. THese were experimental missions that confrimed the Sabre's air-to-ground shortcomings at that time. The 25th Fighter Interceptor Squadron included a number of exchange pilots, none of them more famous than John Glenn. Glenn scored three kills in the Sabre, justifying the aircraft's huge and gaudy nickname - these kills never appeared in the USAF's official records.
