description=The Grumman TBF Avenger was Grumman's first torpedo aircraft, and its design had much in common with that of the Company's fighters - as its chunky, robust appearance testifies. The design and engineering team under W.T. Schwendler developed the aircraft very quickly - the order for two prototypes was placed on 8 April 1940 and the first Avengers went into service just over two years later. \n\nOrigin:  Grumman Engineering Corporation - also built by Eastern Aircraft Division (General Motors)
