Aviation artist Philip West.  Aviation art print 'Buccaneer Strike force' by Philip West depicting Buccaneer aircraft taking off from HMS Ark Royal.

The Blackburn Buccaneer first entered service with the Royal Navy in July 1962.  Designed specifically to operate from the Royal Navy's aircraft carriers, with the ability to fly low and fats, the Buccaneer was also able to carry nuclear weapons for use against soviet naval targets.  Capable of flying 646mph at 200 feet the Buccaneer was a formidable low-level strike aircraft which quickly attracted admirers.  amongst them were the RAF and the South African Air Force, both of whom adopted the Blackburn Buccaneer for their land based operations.  just as the Buccaneer was facing retirement it was called into action again to play a vital role in Kuwait and Iraq during the 1991 Gulf War.
