OB,
Ref the sqn of dive bombers:
- Brewster Buccanneer (Bermuda in UK service) - unlikely given the small number (5) used by the UK
- Fairey Albacore - unlikely, as by 1943 they were being retired from front-line duty rather than working up to it
- Fairey Barracuda - entering service in 1943, so the most likely of the 3 suspects.
