Information

Few British aircraft of the Cold War era can match the mighty Avro Vulcan for sheer aesthetic impact, and this CORGI Aviation Archive 1:72 scale diecast model captures the legendary bomber in stunning detail.

Representing XL426, now under the care of the Vulcan Restoration Trust at London Southend Airport, this exceptional collectible celebrates one of Britain's most beloved aircraft.

Ready to display straight from the box, this premium diecast model requires no assembly and comes complete with a display stand.

The Avro Vulcan remains one of the most spectacular and cherished British aircraft ever to take to the skies. XL426 served as the RAF's Vulcan Display Flight aircraft, thrilling millions at airshows across the nation before being deemed 'no longer required' and sold to a private buyer in 1986. Her final flight was a brief 20-minute delivery hop from RAF Scampton to Southend Airport, where she has resided ever since under the dedicated stewardship of the Vulcan Restoration Trust.

In March 1997, XL426 performed her first fast taxi demonstration along Southend's main runway, an event that has since become a phenomenon among aviation enthusiasts. These high-speed runs offer a rare 'living' Vulcan experience, with the thunderous roar of her engines drawing spectators from across the country.

Even holidaymakers aboard modern Airbus jets pause to watch in awe as this magnificent delta-winged bomber trumpets down the runway, a testament to the enduring affection the British public holds for this remarkable aircraft.
