Unfortunately by the time the Lincoln shows up the state of the art is the B-29.
Yes the Lincoln belonged to the earlier generation of the aircraft you mentioned, I suppose the British did with the Lancaster what the Americans did with the B24 and got the Lincoln, whereas the B29 was perhaps a template more than a relic.Shortround6 sums it up. Had the Lincoln gone into service in late 1943 or early 1944, it would have been compared with the Halifax, B-17, and B-24. It was an advance on those machines and the memories would have been good. Coming out post war, as it did, it gets compared to the B-29, and that comparison is NOT pretty.
