There were literally dozens of British aircraft, however the most famous of those were the Spitfire & Hurricane fighters. The Lancaster, Manchester and Wellington bombers. There are plenty of websites that will list the aircraft. The British also used aircraft made in other countries, primarily from the USA. Also many other allied nations (including the USA) used British aircraft during the war. The British name for an American airplane was different than the name used by Americans.
