Lockheed PV-1 Ventura
The RAF ordered the first Venturas but cancelled the
order after seeing their limitations as a daylight bomber. Those on hand
were turned over to RAF Coastal Command. The US Navy also placed an order,
and Venturas saw combat in the Pacific.

At least 2,100 PV-1 Venturas and PV-2 Harpoons were delivered before the
end of the war, and the total number of deliveries to all customers exceeded
3,000.
