Because Bomber Command could afford to spare the Halifaxs because it had all the Lancs it needed to fulfill it's bombing missions.
 
I was pointing out that the Halifax could be used for these other roles because the bomber mission was filled so well by the Lanc.
 
And there's no point in using Lancasters for EVERYTHING. Plus that not all crews were trained in Lancasters.
Still maybe it would have been more ideal for the Lancaster to be used in Overlord, just before Operation Neptune to bomb those damn bunkers, since the bombers assigned failed.
 
Tallboy came into service right around the time of the invasion and it was early 45 before any Grand Slams were deployed.
 
I'm not sure. I did some checking and I can't find an instance of one being dropped before the invasion. I'm under the impression that it was shortly after that it came into service.
