World's first supersonic bomber; just think of the money the yanks spent developing the B58 which had a much shorter in service life.
Wonder how loud the 'boom' was compared to Concorde.

I have to agree that it seems a bit rude, but I was surprised at how the airframe was sectioned and carried away. It looked neater and more respectable than just scrapping it into unrecognisable flakes of aluminium.
