Designed to have exceptional low-altitude performance, the Blackburn Buccaneer was one of the most capable aircraft of its kind. A triumph for Britain’s aviation industry, the subsonic strike jet is the heaviest aircraft ever operated by the Royal Navy on an aircraft carrier. 

A mighty naval strike aircraft that can trace its origins back to Britain's response to a massive naval expansion program by the Soviet Navy in the 1950s and the introduction of their Sverdlov Class Cruisers, the Blackburn Buccaneer was designed to have exceptional low altitude performance and the ability to effectively neutralize this new naval threat. Required to operate from the relatively confined space aboard one of Britain's aircraft carriers, this subsonic strike jet was the most capable aircraft of its kind in the world and a real triumph for Britain's aviation industry.
