that the RAF stipulated that more than half of all bombs dropped at night landed OUT SIDE of the target city limits
I think this is a reference to the May 1941 report by Bomber Command but was this true in 1944/1945 with the better navigation aids and the pathfinder force?
They took more casualties per capita
I can quote another RAF study in 1942 which gave these statistics on the percentage chance of survival of one tour by role
Heavy & Medium Bombers 44%
Day Fighter 43%
Torpedo Bomber 17%
