The Vulcan appears to be a Mk. 2, as it is too early for either the MRR or tanker versions, and it has the larger wing and fat/long ECM tailcone.

Sure is, XH535 was the third production B.2 completed, served with the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment (A&AEE) at the time the picture was taken, was also one of the first Vulcan B.2s to be lost in an accident, crashing in 1964, after only four years in service.

Why did some British cold war era fighters have pylons for missiles on top of the wings, or in the electric lightings case fuel tanks?
