Summary

Description
English: A declassified 1965 UK MoD drawing that shows the Red Top's firing zone from a Lightning at Mach 1.5 at 47,000 altitude against a Tu-22 Blinder at the same speed and altitude. The firing zone from a Sea Vixen FAW2 would have been smaller due to the Sea Vixen FAW2's slower speed.
