Much loved by its crews, the mighty delta winged Avro Vulcan
was designed to perform Britain's nuclear deterrent bomber role
during the Cold War. It carried out this responsibility for more
than a decade. The aircraft then served as a low-level nuclear
strike and maritime radar reconnaissance platform, before finally
being called to war action in the Falklands conflict where it
provided long-range bombing capabilities, attacking surface targets
and Stanley Airport.
