Perhaps I am just a little older than the rest of you all; but I remember the Valiant could carry 41,000 of bombs. 21,000 in the bomb bay and 10,000 under each wing. The well known underwing tanks could be replaced by what looked like underwing fuel tanks but they held bombs and even had their own bomb doors. Never saw one but I still have a CofG slide rule that shows they actually existed (perhaps!).
