dctyke,
The Buccaneer underwater escape system was developed using dead sheep as test subjects. The test reports used to be recommended reading for any new members of Flight Systems Department at Brough. Unfortunately all the Buccaneer and Phantom files have now been disposed of so we can no longer while away a few minutes reading about aviation history.
