Tirpitz was attacked at 0020 hrs from 8,000 feet with one 4,000 lb HC bomb and four 500 lb GP bombs. Bursts were seen by 2nd Pilot and Wireless Operator directly over the target but it was impossible to say if the target was actually hit although it appeared to be very close. All bombs burst in a stick. The first two 500 lb bombs seemed to burst past the ship and the flash of the 4,000 lb bomb was seen after and appeared to be directly over Tirpitz.

The aircraft and crew returned safely to RAF Lossiemouth landing at 0355 hrs on 28th April1942.

Tirpitz was attacked at 0025 hrs to 0036 hrs from 14,000 feet. Bombs fell amongst flak concentrations and bursts were seen. 10 500 lb GP and 4 250 lb GP bombs being released. The Pilot remarked that the trip was uneventful. On the outward journey they were able to map read to the target. Two bombing runs were made in the target area. One on the peninsula North of Asenfjord and the other on the peninsula North of Fættenfjord where Tirpitz was berthed. As with the outward trip, the homeward trip was uneventful.

The aircraft and crew returned safely to RAF Lossiemouth landing at approximately 0430 hrs on 29th April1942.
