Very interesting. Thanks for your expertise mfg495. Wing 51 "Immelmann" is the only recce unit in German air force. Early this year 33 recce pods were available. Since two years Immelmann are also responsible for naval air combat. Due to restructuring navy is no longer operating recce tornados. As member of NATO Tiger Association they participate in regular NATO Tiger Meetings. http://www.natotigers.org/NTM07/index.php . This years meeting is hosted in Norway and is running until tomorrow. I hope they will put some more pictures online tomorrow.

Great photos and great information. May i add that the modified Victors of Nos 55 and 57 squadron first began their service in 1965 and in 1966 delivery of the first K1 which could refule 3 smaller aircraft at any one time in the air. Bomb doors were removed from the aircrafts and the bomb bay eqipped with two tanks capable of 15,300 lb each (~ 6940 kg). On 1 May in the first bombing of Port Stanley the Victor tankers were essential for the operation and involved 11 of them. Because of the long distances they had to refule themselves also.

In this context i can recommend the book:
Bomber Squadrons at war by Geoff D. Copeman
It covers history of Nos 57 and 630 squadron and has also a few pages about the V-Force mainly about the Victors of No 57 in the end.
If you have pictures of the Victors also i would be delighted to see them

regards
