In April 1943 the first Mk X's were received, plus a few Mk III's with 99Sqn, which served principly as night bombers for another year until both Squadrons re-equipped with Liberator Mk VI's in Summer 1944.

Found this information on another discussion group a few years back. Any other info out there?
