Actually, to toss a spanner into the works, and from one who flew Jaguars for 10 years, I truly believe that the Canberra B57G was the best. I did not have the good fortune to fly it, but did tours on B15/16s and B(I)8s. We could carry Nuks, rockets, missiles, cannons, napalm, retard and free fall bombs, flares, could fly 1000 miles at low level, cruise at 60,000 feet and all for the price of a bottle of beer
