<hi style=afpcap>One of the first all-metal monoplane bombers to be designed between the two great wars, the Martin B-10 was ordered between 1933 and 1936. Although lacking an attractive external appearance, its looks did not detract from its effectiveness as a bomber. The B-10 and the two upgraded versions the B-12 and B-14 remained operational with the Air Corps throughout the remainder of the thirties until the larger and more capable B-17 and B-18s entered service in sufficient numbers. The B-10 and its variants enjoyed a health export order book with almost 200 being sold abroad including a large number to the Netherlands East Indies. </hi>
