Aircraft & Exhibits, In Storage, 83/C/393

The British overseas territory of the Falkland Islands was invaded by Argentine forces on 2 April 1982. A Royal Navy task force was despatched with ground troops to retake the Islands and the Argentine surrender was accepted on 14 June. The RAF executed five long-range bombing operations against Stanley airfield and anti-aircraft installations, operating from Ascension Island. Avro Vulcan XM598, on display in the Cold War exhibition, was one of the aircraft designated for these operations.
