Yeah, not quite the same, is it?

No, it's not.

But with the other V bombers, so when I was looking at setting this in sort of the early to mid 1960s, the Valiant was already starting to be phased out of active use.

V-Bomber service.

It was less technically advanced than the other two.

Interesting tangent about if the RAF had ever gone for the Valiant B2, because there was a B2 variant that Vickers did develop, but never went anywhere.

So that ruled the Valiant out.

How did you go about that whole espionage and spy element?
