SEPTEMBER 17TH, 1942 FLIGHT Advertisements. 25 HISTORY OF THE GUN TURRET. No. 8 OF A SERIES. We have taken iha air war to the cities of the enemy. It Is on a swastika background that the battle is being joined, with ever mightier fury. For bringing the bombers safely home through the Hun fighters, returning fire for fire, credit is due to the power-operated gun turret; and not least to the Boulton-Paul turrets with which so many of our bombers are equipped. "The first gun turret was fitted in the nose of the Boulton-Paui Overstrand in 1934."—The Aeroplane 107.42.
