14 VC-10 C1s were delivered to 10 Squadron between 1966 and 1967. The C1 was a variant of the civil 'Standard VC-10' fitted with the wing and more powerful engines of the 'Super VC-10'. The C1 can carry 139 passengers in rear facing seats, eight standard pallets or up to 78 medical evacuation stretchers. The strengthened floor allowed the C1 to transport 1,000lb bombs for the Tornado GR1 force during the Gulf War, each aircraft carrying 50 per flight. During the war, 10 Sqn flew 1,326 sorties in over 5,000 hours. The squadron also took part in most other operations involving British forces, including the 1982 Falklands War and the 2003 war in Iraq. View other product and find out more about Corgi Classics.
