The Blackburn Buccaneer was a powerful naval fighter aircraft whose origins date back to the British response to a massive Soviet Navy fleet expansion program in the 1950s and the introduction of their Sverdlov-class cruisers.
It was designed for exceptional low-altitude performance and the ability to effectively combat this new naval threat.
Having to operate from the relatively limited space aboard a British aircraft carrier, this subsonic fighter was the most capable aircraft of its type in the world and a true triumph for the British aviation industry - it was also the heaviest aircraft ever used by the Royal Navy.
