Only one Liberator, serial number A72-176, model B-24MR (where R implies a modification incorporating radar) survives in Australia and is the object of a restoration scheme under the auspices of the National Trust of Australia.

While Australian pilots flew Liberators in other theatres of war, the aircraft was introduced into service in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) in 1944 when it was suggested by Gen George C. Kenney that seven heavy bomber squadrons be raised to supplement the efforts of the 380th Bombardment Group of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF).
