Verónica; code 3-A-13. Flown in an attack over Buenos Aires 16Jun55 during the
Revolution of that year; the pilot later fled to Carrasco, Uruguay. Revolución Libertadora
(The Liberating Revolution) was a military and civilian uprising that ended the second
presidential term of Juan Perón in Argentina on 16Sep55. Thirty Argentine Navy and Air Force
aircraft bombed Plaza de Mayo, Buenos Aires' main square, killing over 300 civilians and
wounding hundreds more. The attack remains to this day the largest aerial bombing ever
executed on the Argentine mainland. The bombing targeted the adjacent Casa Rosada,
the official seat of government. The aircraft was returned to Argentina by 26Jul55.
