EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Prototype Handley Page Victor B2, registration number XH668, a significant milestone in aviation history. The Handley Page Victor B2 was a British long-range strategic bomber and transport aircraft, developed by the Handley Page Aircraft Company in the late 1950s. This prototype, XH668, was the first of its kind to take to the skies, marking the beginning of an impressive era in aviation. The sleek and powerful design of the Handley Page Victor B2 is evident in this image, with its distinctive wing shape and tail fin. The aircraft's impressive capabilities included a maximum speed of over 500 miles per hour and a range of over 4,000 miles, making it a formidable force in the skies. The Handley Page Victor B2 was primarily used by the Royal Air Force (RAF) for strategic bombing and maritime patrol missions. Its versatility, however, extended beyond military applications, as it was also used for transporting cargo and even VIP passengers. This photograph captures the prototype XH668 in its element, soaring high above the clouds. The image is a testament to the groundbreaking achievements of the Handley Page Aircraft Company and the RAF in pushing the boundaries of aviation technology. The Handley Page Victor B2 remains an iconic symbol of British aviation history and a source of inspiration for future generations of engineers and aviators.
