[quote=TIN MAN;389746]Interesting that the Vulcan B2 was no faster than the early B1. I thought the Olympus 301s`were much more powerful than the 201s`? What was their comparable IAS at sea level?




Sorry for the delay, but have now been able to find the time to unearth the low altitude limit info you wanted.
Victor B1 330 kts SL to 34,000'
Victor B2 350 kts SL to 19,000'
Vulcan B1 250 kts SL to 20,000'
Vulcan B2 330 kts SL to 15,000'
High altitude max speeds are unchanged in each case.
