BAe Canberra (bomber versions)

Can any of our English experts help me out on information regarding the Canberra’s bomber and interdictor versions.

I’m curious how many of each model (B.2, B.6, and B(I).8) were built, and who used them (as well as their respective export designations).

Are any Canberra bomber versions still in service.

And of course, the cardinal PII question, what stores were they capable of carrying and where.

The best I can seem to find is that the B.6 usually carried six 1,000-lb. bombs in the bay and either two more underwing or two AS.30’s.

Anyone else know?

I know the B(I).8 had four 20-mm cannons?

Type?

Number of rounds?
