The Vulcan delta wing bomber served its country for 30 years, yet only dropped one bomb load in anger - on the Falklands airstrip in 1982. Witness the star plane being rebuilt from scratch

Well I remember at least one lot on Stanley airfield, and one lot of 'airburst fused' dropped which exploded on contact with terra ferma due to switch piggery.
