Vickers Valiant - Survivors

The fate of most Valiants

Unfortunately once the Valiant force was retired the MoD embarked on an orgy of burning and scrapping, and only a single example was earmarked for preservation - thankfully a particularly historic example, the one that dropped Britain's first hydrogen bomb. A few nose sections have also managed to survive but as a type the Valiant has come perilously close to extinction.
