CORRECTION According to Patreon supporter Lucas, it is pronounced with a "V". As he knows the folks at the RNZAF museum, I'll go with their opinion.

The torpedo bomber saw its heyday during the Second World War, with very mixed results. Well remembered are the desperate attacks by Douglas Devastators at the Battle of Midway in June 1942.

But less well remembered are the efforts of another aircraft, one from a previous era that, despite being utterly archaic, was thrown into the maelstrom and flown with tremendous heroism.
