  • Based on the airframe of the Blackburn B-24 Skua, 136 examples were built to specification O.30/35. The plane had a Bristol Perseus XII Engine that was capable of propelling the Blackburn Roc at speeds of up to 358.8 km/h. One of its main differences from the Skua was that it had four .303 Browning M1919 MGs mounted in a turret to the rear, making it the first naval aircraft to be fitted with a powered gun turret. The Roc also had a crew of two and could carry up to eight 14 kg bombs under the wings. Loaded weight was around 3,600–4000 kg, length was around 35 feet (or 10.7 meters) and wingspan was 46 feet (or 14 meters). The service ceiling was approximately 5,500 meters.
