Blackburn Buccaneer

By Nico Braas

The Blackburn Buccaneer was the first jet aircraft that was especially designed for very low flying under the radar at high subsonic speeds. It was developed in the fifties and entered service at the Royal Navy in 1962. Later, it also flew as an attack bomber at the R.A.F. and it even played a role during the Gulf War in 1991, before being retired in 1994 after an operational career that spanned three decades. This book presents an overview of the development and operational use of the 'Blackburn Buccaneer' jet with many photos and illustrations.
