During the Falklands conflict in 1982, the tiny mid Atlantic volcanic island of Ascension became the starting point for the Black Buck missions a relay of tanker aircraft refueling two Vulcan bombers to attack Argentine positions and damage the runway at Port Stanley to prevent the use of fast jets.
