The Typhoon Mk.IB, widely known as the Tiffy, distinguished itself particularly in the Battle of Normandy. In one famous case, Tiffies of the 2nd Tactical Air Force decimated a large concentration of armor ahead of Avranches, disposing of no fewer than 137 tanks, and opening the way for the liberation of France and Belgium.
