Westland Welkin. British twin-engine heavy fighter designed to fight at extremely high altitudes. welkin meaning "the vault of heaven" built in response to Junkers Ju 86P bombers flying recce missions suggesting Luftwaffe might attempt to re-open bombing of Britain from high alt

Teddy Petter designed the Welkin as a follow on to his Whirwind. Its long narrow chord wings were for high altitude interception. The Welkin was not satisfactory and Petter rethought the wing design, leading to a wide chord high-altitude wing for his Canberra jet bomber.
