The Buccaneer was originally designed in response to the Soviet Union's Sverdlov-class cruiser construction programme. Instead of building a new fleet of its own, the Royal Navy could use the Buccaneer to attack these ships by approaching at low altitudes below the ship's radar horizon. The Buccaneer could attack using a nuclear bomb, or conventional weapons. It was later intended to carry short-range anti-shipping missiles to improve its survivability against more modern ship-based anti-aircraft weapons.

This looks really good!
@Tang0five tried to make the lighter colors but the darker was the only one I got close to matching the originals.
V good effort I like it! I would use a lighter colour scheme as you can’t see what a beauty this is!
