Great canvas for noseart too!

They must have looked stunning in their three tone paint schemes. There's a pic somewhere of one with an engine out and streaming smoke so although they came in lateish, they certainly got in the thick of it!

Proved a capable Cold War warrior from memory too.

An incredible aircraft that most over here know nothing about because it never saw RAF service.
