I think "next door to a school at 2am in the rain" might have been the trickier part of the requirement for the Canberra....

Didn't the USAF do that with the B-57Gs in Viet Nam?

If it's 2am, good little schoolboys and girls should be tucked up in bed at home !

Or  how about an old Buccaneer, with a tele-guided Martel?   As I recall, Buccs went  laser spotting for  the Tornadii   during Granby.

I KNEW somebody would say that!!!! 

Thing is, in the modern age of TV-wars, a bombed school is good propaganda for the enemy whether or not any kids were actually killed. You can drag a party of journos around it days later, stand on the rubble and make an impassioned speech about how the western b**t**ds are destroying your kids' education and bombing their future, while quietly steering them away from the remains of AQHQ next door.....

I went to the local Secondary Modern and probably got better O Levels results because of it (seriously) plus had the advantage of beating them at football/cricket/athletics/swimming every year  Used to win the "scuffles" at the bus stop as well
