the de havilland dh.98 mosquito is a british twin-engined, shoulder-winged, multirole combat aircraft, introduced during the second world war. unusual in that its frame was constructed mostly of wood, it was nicknamed the "wooden wonder", or "mossie". lord beaverbrook, minister of aircraft production, nicknamed it "freeman's folly", alluding to air chief marshal sir wilfrid freeman, who defended geoffrey de havilland and his design concept against orders to scrap the project. in 1941, it was one of the fastest operational aircraft in the world.

originally conceived as an unarmed fast bomber, the mosquito's use evolved during the war into many roles, including low- to medium-altitude daytime tactical bomber, high-altitude night bomber, pathfinder, day or night fighter, fighter-bomber, intruder, maritime strike, and photo-reconnaissance aircraft. it was also used by the british overseas airways corporation as a fast transport to carry small, high-value cargo to and from neutral countries through enemy-controlled airspace. the crew of two, pilot and navigator, sat side by side. a single passenger could ride in the aircraft's bomb bay when necessary.

the mosquito fbvi was often flown in special raids, such as operation jericho (an attack on amiens prison in early 1944), and precision attacks against military intelligence, security, and police facilities (such as gestapo headquarters). on 30 january 1943, the 10th anniversary of the nazis' seizure of power, a morning mosquito attack knocked out the main berlin broadcasting station while hermann göring was speaking, taking his speech off the air.
