Consolidated B-32 Dominator. Flew only a few missions but has the distinction of being the last Allied aircraft to be engaged in combat during WWII.

1. HP Halifax. Some actually saw service with SEAC, though I believe only with SD units.

2. Avro Lancaster. Equipped Tiger Force, which was in training and preparing to deploy to the Pacific.

3. Hawker Tempest. See #2.

4. Consolidated B-32 Dominator. 'Cause they were actually deployed.

5. Lockheed A-29 (USAAC version of the Hudson). Came across some info that says a second AVG, with these aircraft, was forming at San Diego on 7 Dec '41.

6. Vultee P-66 Vanguard. Some were used in China and on US west coast.

7. Seversky/Republic P-43 Lancer. See #6.

A Mosquito bomber formation along with the recon and FB versions of the plane.

There IS a Mossy bomber in RHS - there are three Mossies - just as you suggest.

There also are C-54s and C-83/LB-30 heavy transports.

There are Navy/Marine versions of the C-47 and C-54 too.

There are C-60 Loadstars and CG-4 Gliders (using C-47 tugs).

And there are both F7Fs and F8Fs.

Then there are two carrier night fighters for the USN - F6F-5N and F4U-2N
