Can You Identify This Four-Jet Delta Bomber?

(* Jeremy Briggs asks...)

CAN YOU IDENTIFY THIS FOUR-JET DELTA BOMBER?

Today we live in a time when parents would prefer their off-spring not to go into the armed forces, but in the Fifties, Sixties and Seventies adverts for the British armed forces and their cadet arms were a common sight in the comics of the day. This RAF advert is from Eagle Volume 5 Number 13 dated 26 March 1954.

If you are stuck on what the bomber is called this cutaway, from Lion dated 4 November 1961, should help.

The Vulcan was the best known RAF bomber of its day and made many appearances in comics and story books. The Big Delta is coming to a Bear Alley near you - soon!
