Avro Vulcan RAF Bomber Christmas Card by Philip E. West GAvA
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 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.
