Über dieses Bild:

This aircraft, the Blackburn Buccaneer XX901 had an illustrious service with the Royal Air Force. It saw service during 1983 as part of the deployment in the Falklands. Later it saw action over Beirut.
This picture shows the action of the folding wings, This is to enable the aircraft to fit on the lifts of the then British aircraft carriers. You can also see the really heavy duty undercarriage required for deck landings.
