Performance wise, it ran, or should that be flew, rings around the Canberra. Top speed 687mph at sea level and an initial climb rate of 11820 feet/sec. One Israeli Vautour even had an air-to-air kill against an Iraqi Hunter. I've only flown micro-lights but I know which aeroplane I would have chosen to go to war in. Interesting to read a previous post about some French ones visiting Rhodesia, because the one I previously mentioned seeing at Entebbe must have part of this visit. I wonder why it was a singleton I saw at Entebbe though.
