EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the Handley Page HP.80 Victor 2nd prototype, registration WB775 (msn HP80-02), is seen gracefully touching down on the runway after an impressive display at the 1955 SBAC Farnborough Airshow. The Handley Page HP.80 Victor, also known as the "V-Bomber," was a long-range, high-altitude strategic bomber developed by the British aircraft manufacturing company, Handley Page, during the 1950s. This particular aircraft, the second prototype, made its maiden flight on March 20, 1955, and was an essential part of the British air defense system during the Cold War era. The Victor was designed to carry nuclear weapons and could reach altitudes of up to 45,000 feet and fly at supersonic speeds. Its sleek, streamlined design and advanced technology made it a formidable addition to the Royal Air Force's arsenal. The 1955 SBAC Farnborough Airshow was an annual event that showcased the latest advancements in aviation technology. The Handley Page HP.80 Victor 2nd prototype, WB775, was one of the main attractions of the show, and its impressive display left the crowd in awe. The aircraft's ability to fly high and fast, combined with its advanced avionics and weapon systems, made it a symbol of British innovation and technological prowess. This photograph captures a moment in aviation history, as the Victor prototype makes its way back to the ground after a successful display, marking another milestone in the development of this remarkable aircraft. The Handley Page HP.80 Victor would go on to serve the Royal Air Force for over three decades, making it a true icon of British aviation history.
