Welp the isbn is legit. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Vulcan-607-Rowland-White/dp/0552152293 But I don't have time to read that shit. Now I just need someone to read it.

There’s a really interesting book out there about Operation Black Buck , the RAF Vulcan Bomber - Victor Tanker missions during the Falklands War.

They supported the vulcans in Operation Black buck, but still are gorgeous aircraft in their own right, those 60s lines will never be repeated.

Vulcan 607 is a great read on the whole operation.

Recommended reading: Vulcan 607 (ISBN 978-0-552-15229-7)
A true story about an insane mission, during the Falklands war.

u/LordWarfire · 2 pointsr/AskUK

I encourage you to read Vulcan 607 by Rowland White, a dramatised account of the British response to the conflict. It focuses mostly on the military activity but includes details on the mood of the populace and British thought in general.

According to one book Thatcher threatened to nuke argentina: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2005/nov/22/books.france

And the british warships were carrying nuclear weapons (depth charges at least): https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2003/dec/06/military.freedomofinformation

Plus the Vulcan fleet (The fleet of nuclear bombers) had the capability of striking the mainland and were doing so with conventional weapons (on military targets): Was mentioned in https://www.amazon.co.uk/Vulcan-607-Rowland-White/dp/0552152293 )
