XD826 was scrapped in the mid-1960s but its nose section was kept by the RAF and used for a period as a Navigation and Bomb-aiming System procedures trainer. It then passed through a number of hands over the years before eventually being gifted to the IWM, arriving at Duxford on 9 December 2022. It will eventually be restored for proper display.

Just one complete Valiant bomber exists today, whilst a handful of cockpit sections have survived the years. This is the flight control panel of one of those cockpit sections, now located at the Highland Aviation Museum on the airport perimeter.
