The P-61B Black Widow was an American night fighter from the World War II period, designed by Northrop. This aircraft was renowned for its powerful armament and advanced radar technology for its time, enabling it to effectively hunt down German and Japanese bombers during night operations.

The P-61B variant entered service with the United States Army Air Forces between 1944–1945 and was used on all World War II fronts, as well as for a short time after the war. One of the most famous uses of the P-61 was for the shootdown of the last enemy aircraft in the Pacific theater just before the announcement of the war’s end.
