Built for the Luftwaffe in 1944, it was damaged in service and was under repair near Auxerre when the War ended. It is preserved in the Musee de l'Air

French navy Lancaster WU13 is seen here parked on the western side of the airfield of Wellington while still being operated by 9S. Around February 27th or 28th 1964, she flew from Wellington to Auckland and then back to Noumea, where she was based. Less than two months later, this aircraft flew back to Auckland Whenuapai where it was handed over to the Museum of Transport & Technology in Auckland on April 15th 1964. On that day, WU15 was present as well to ferry back the crew of WU13. By then, WU13 had been fitted with 0.5-inch machine guns in all turrets. Since then, WU13 has been preserved there in RAF WWII colour scheme and markings as NX665.
