Named after Gen. William “Billy” Mitchell (1879-1936), one of the earliest and strongest advocates of American airpower, the B-25 bomber was the type used by Gen. Jimmy Doolittle for the Tokyo Raid on April 18, 1942. Although intended for level bombing from medium altitudes, it was used extensively in the Pacific for bombing Japanese airfields and beach emplacements and for strafing and skip bombing enemy shipping during World War II.  

The Mitchell was among North American Aviation’s three great aircraft contributions to the Allied cause during World War II. The other two are AT-6 Texan and the P-51 Mustang. While the Mustang was the most famous of the three, the Mitchell was the most important aircraft in its own class since it gave America one of its first victories during the dark days of early 1942. It was built in large quantity and proved its worth in both the Pacific and European theaters of war.  

Weaponry:

• Six .50-cal. machine guns  
•  3,000 lbs. of bombs

The North American B-25 Mitchell (NA-62) was an American twin-engined medium bomber manufactured by North American Aviation. It was used by many Allied air forces, in every theater of World War II, as well as many other air forces after the war ended, and saw service across four decades. 

The B-25 was named in honor of General Billy Mitchell, a pioneer of U.S. military aviation. The B-25 is the only American military aircraft named after a specific person. By the end of its production, nearly 10,000 B-25s in numerous models had been built. These included a few limited variations, such as the US Navy's PBJ-1 patrol bomber and the Army Air Forces' F-10 photo reconnaissance aircraft.
