The Victor was actually *more* capable than the Vulcan. It was faster and although its clean range was shorter, the huge slipper tanks on the B2 version gave it an equivalent range.
The weapons bay was cavernous. Conventional 1000lb bombs intended for use on the V-bombers were loaded to a Seven Store Carrier. The carrier was loaded in the bomb dump and shipped out to the aircraft as a unit, where it was winched into the weapons bay. The Vulcan could carry three seven-stores, giving a total of 21 one-thousand pounders. Impressive! But then, the Victor could carry *five* seven-stores! Thirty-five one-thousand pound bombs! There were fuel tanks that could be fitted in the weapons bay, so a Victor that carried three seven-stores would have the same striking power as a Vulcan but twice the range.
The Vulcan wing was stronger than that of the Victor and more suited to the low-level role where the immense range of the Victor wouldn't be a factor anyway. The huge fuel capacity of the Victor when the weapons bay was filled with fuel tanks made it ideal as a tanker.
