 The origin of the Avro Vulcan can be traced back to the response of Roy Chadwick, AVRO's Chief Designer, to the receipt of Specification B35/46. This was the RAF's requirement for a four jet nuclear bomber and was initiated due to what became known as the 'Cold War'. The Vulcan B.Mk2 entered service with the RAF in the 1960's and had a number of refinements over the B.Mk1, notably Series 201 Olympus engines producing an additional 5,000 lb st, along with an extended tail containing electronic countermeasures. This was the machine which would carry the Blue Steel nuclear missile. During the Cold War years, the Vulcan was allocated the role of a high level, stand-off attack bomber and was painted in pure white to reflect nuclear 'flash'. From the 1960's onward, as Soviet air defences improved, the attack profile was changed to low-level penetration and the more familiar camouflage markings were adopted. 3 models and 4 paint examples are included in this file. B.Mk2 white paint with Blue Steel nuclear missile / B.Mk2A overall dark camouflage and sand camoufage paint without option / B.Mk2A bright camouflage paint with AGM-45 missile.
