@elswick1542 Yes old Nakita said,if the RAF did not stop their flying over Russia
"all their 'Kan Bearas' would become flying coffins"
Mig 15 runs out of climb 20,0000ft below the 'Kan Bearas'.
Nobody could touch the Canberra in those days.....Yanks or Ivans.

@NAIAD49 Don,t forget the Canberra old Comrade Khrushchev loved them especially when they flew over his head and he could not do F***all about it!

Fantastic footage,thats the old Britian I love.
180 V Bombers...............they would hit their targets long before the B52's.
We used to be a great nation.

Very interesting.
It almost serves as a backdrop to the infamous (and banned for 20 years) docu-drama 'The War Game'.
Also set in a another English county with V-Force bases - Kent.
But, deterrence worked.
