About the Handley Page Victor B Mk.2 (BS)

The Handley Page Victor was one of Britain's three V-bombers, forming the backbone of the RAF's nuclear deterrent during the Cold War. The B Mk.2 variant, introduced in 1961, featured more powerful Conway engines and increased wingspan for improved high-altitude performance. The BS designation indicated Blue Steel capability, referring to the British stand-off nuclear missile the Victor could carry. With its distinctive crescent wing design and sleek fuselage, the Victor was considered the most aerodynamically advanced of the V-bombers. The type later served with distinction as an aerial refueling tanker during the Falklands War, making it an iconic symbol of British Cold War aviation and a favorite subject for V-bomber enthusiasts.

What's Included

Eduard'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.
