Lockheed Model 212[]
Perhaps the prototype (reg. NX18955 then C-FBQX) c/n 212-13 which has been sold after RCAF service to an US owner and then registered NC60755) ?
We guess the former place of the gun turret.

TK+HE, a Junkers Ju-87A-2 Stuka is shadowed by a dark camouflaged Junkers Ju 87 B.
Same aircraft in other movies at IMPDb: Frequently Seen Aircraft.

Probably the same archive footage which will be used again in The Young Lions.

Douglas C-47[]
Grumman TBF Avenger[]
The famous strafing in which Rommel was hurt.
The attack occurred in Normandy by a deep blue sky weather and was done by two Spitfires… but first we see a torpedo bomber(!) with a cloudy background.
