The data I'm finding is expressed in tons rather than a count. During the Blitz, England was hit with over 100 tons of explosives. One website reads that the Allies dropped around 1.9 million tons of bombs on Germany.
The answer of 100 tons is clearly wrong. That amount, and more, would have been dropped in just one bombing raid. Secondly, the question is about Britain, not just England. Scotland and Wales were heavily bombed as well as England.
The number of bombs that one plane can carry depends on the plane and the size of the bombs. During WW2, the B-29 Superfortress could carry 20,000 pounds of bombs or approximately 5 to 15 bombs.

Well the only two worth remembering are the atomic bombs Fatman and Littleboy. Each bomb was dropped in Japan which hit Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Each bomb killed hundreds of thousands of Japanese citizens and soldiers. Japan shortly surrendered after that.
bombs, maybe a few millionatomic bombs, two
The bombers that dropped both atomic bombs flew from the island of Tinian. This was also the base for bombers that flew many of the "thousand plane" firebombing attacks every night (each of which did similar damage to the atomic bombs).
Atomic bombs- Zero.
You'd have to know the yield of each bomb to determine the number of bombs...
There is no record of each individual bomb dropped by the Axis powers or the Allied powers. The military keeps records of how many tons of bombs they dropped. Both sides dropped millions of pounds during World War 2.

I have seen the figure of 7 million tons of bombs were dropped, thrown or put into artillery. I think the figure is probably higher world wide. The number of bombs is not how the military records and accounts for bombs. They go by tonnage not by each individual bomb. Trust me if you counted the individual bombs there would tens of millions of them because some air raids dropped over ten thousand bombs in one mission.
The air force has many bases where they trained their pilots depending of the plane the pilot is assigned.
