The Douglas XSB2D-1 Destroyer was designed as a replacement for both the Douglas SBD Dauntless and the Curtiss SB2C Helldiver. Not long after its first flight on 8 April 1943, the US Navy requested a torpedo bomber be developed from the XSB2D-1. This resulted in the Douglas BTD Destroyer. Only 2 prototypes of the XSB2D-1 were built as the order was converted to BTD Destroyers instead. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/douglas-xsb2d-1-destroyer/ #aviation #aeroplane #airplane #DouglasXSB2D #DouglasDestroyer #TorpedoBomber #USNavy
