The BK Mk.I variant entered service in 1955 and was capable of delivering both conventional and nuclear weapons at high altitude. The Valiant achieved several notable firsts, including dropping Britain's first live atomic bomb during Operation Grapple in 1956 and participating in the Suez Crisis. With its distinctive high-mounted wings and four Rolls-Royce Avon engines, the Valiant served until 1965 and remains an iconic symbol of Britain's Cold War strategic deterrent, making it a favorite subject for V-bomber enthusiasts and Cold War aviation modelers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEduard's CX series masks are precision-cut from thin, flexible vinyl that conforms perfectly to complex canopy curves and wheel hubs. The set typically includes canopy frame masks for both interior and exterior surfaces, wheel hub masks, and any additional glazed areas. The self-adhesive backing ensures secure placement without residue, while the material's flexibility allows it to follow compound curves without lifting or leaking paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Eduard Paint Masks?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1989, Eduard has been perfecting the art of paint masking, using CAD design and precision cutting to create masks that fit perfectly with minimal trimming.
