The Oncoming Storm,
There was indeed a six-seater Vulcan, the Phase 6 Stretched, it had a plug behind the cockpit and had six crew all on forward-facing ejector seats plus a small galley and loo. IMHO its damn ugly and since the basic Phase 6 mods could be retrofitted to the B.2 fleet this option I've shown was the more likely to go ahead had Skybolt not been cancelled.

Chris Gibson;s new book 'Vulcan's Hammer: V-Force Projects and Weapons Since 1945' is an excellent read. It's given me some further ideas. I may do further Vulcan B.3s with weapons like the BAC X-12...

No words to describe the Vulcan B3 and the Saro 177.

Thanks for the infor Hood, I'd always assumed the six seater was the "base" Phase 6, I am planning to get Vulcan's Hammer but I've a lot of other reading to get through!

It is just too cool to past over! just a small change with the export version, I added a gun instead of the rocket pod.

Oh YES! :D Excellent versions (though still fanciful - but so what?) Seeing the P.1121 in camouflage and markings shows how the actual built aircraft would have looked; in fact it was a fairly large aircraft and for some reason evokes the Republic Thunderchief in my imagination.
