The Supermarine Walrus is a British reconnaissance seaplane designed by the renowned engineer R.J. Mitchell (also the creator of the Supermarine Spitfire). It was widely used by the Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, and the air forces of several other countries during World War II. Its tasks included both maritime rescue (SAR) and cooperation with ships – it was launched from catapults on the decks of battleships and cruisers. Its characteristic biplane and floatplane construction ensured stability during water landings and takeoffs. The Walrus participated in numerous rescue operations across all fronts, including in the Mediterranean and Atlantic regions.
