The Vulcan Story

The Vulcan Story

by Peter R March (Author)

Synopsis

The RAF's mighty delta-wing Vulcan jet bomber is an enduring image of the Cold War era. A cornerstone of Britain's nuclear deterrent, it was later adapted for conventional bombing and saw its only active service in the Falklands War. Newly restored with the help of Heritage Lottery Funding, the last airworthy Vulcan B2 XH558 in many ways fills the gap left by Concorde's retirement.
