Instead of waxing lyrical about the Buc' - " a steam driven slum " of a cockpit - one might recount it's plus points, as in internal weapons bay ( originally before Sea Eagle, another great loss ) F-22 / 35 anyone ?!

It was widely said that a fully ( internally ) loaded Buccaneer was faster and much longer range than a loaded Tornado...
