Hello, I hope that this thread is not closed. I am looking for the exact type designation of the Halifax DT627 from the 138 Special Duty Sq. (NF-P), which was lost on 12/05/1943 at the North Sea along with its Polish crew of seven. It was likely Mk II, however I do not know in which variant. Could someone help please? Also, could this aircraft be equipped with the ground-mapping radar? Any suggestions are welcome.
 
The DT672 was the Halifax Mk.II made by the English Electric factory as a part of the 250 aircraft and the 3rd batch. The DT series was made as the B and GR Mk.II.

The closest kite I found via the net is the Handley Page Halifax Mk. II (DT624) of No. 405 Squadron RCAF ...
