Supermarine
Spitfire MkVb
The Spitfire MkV was one
of the most successful
temporary fighters
ever introduced into the
Royal Air Force, having
been rushed into service
following experiences
up against the Bf109s
of the Luftwaffe. Over
one hundred and forty
RAF squadrons operated
the type. It served on
all battlefronts and was
supplied to nine other

Spitfire PRXIX
The reconnaisance Spitfire PRXIXs were unarmed but could fly
at 370mph at 40,000 feet (with pressurised cockpits) and had a
range of 1500 miles. Mk XIX Spitfires represent the top end of
development of the Spitfire and indeed of piston engine aircraft,
demonstrating the incredible development potential of the original
Spitfire design.

Bf109E
In the Battle of Britain,
the Bf 109 was at a
disadvantage due to its
short range. During the
Battle, after escorting
bombers from their bases
in northern Europe, the
Messerschmitt had only
around 15 minutes of fuel
for combat over southern
England. However in the

proved to be a formidable

The MiG-15 was one of the
first successful swept-wing jet
fighters, and it achieved fame
in the skies over Korea, where
early in the war, it outclassed
all enemy fighters. It is believed
to have been one of the most
numerous jet aircraft ever
made, with over 12,000 built,
with a possible further 6,000
being built under license

When the Korean War broke out in 1950, the Sea Fury was

In 1941 the Luftwaffe introduced the Fw190 providing a
formidable foe to the RAFs fighters. The Mk IX was a significant
improvement on the Mk V. It had a top speed of 409 mph at

combined. The Hurricane was a robust, manoeuvrable aircraft
capable of sustaining fearsome combat damage before write-off;
and unlike the Spitfire, it was a wholly operational, go-anywhere
do-anything fighter by July 1940. It is estimated that its pilots
were credited with four-fifths of all enemy aircraft destroyed in
the period July-October 1940.

During the period at the start of the war when Poland was under

the German front line in the West. It was during one of these
missions that a Fairey Battle of No. 88 Squadron shot down a
Messerschmitt Bf 109, giving the Battle the honour of having
achieved the first RAF kill of the war. However, the phoney war
period also saw the Battle suffer significant losses, and once the

The Vickers-Armstrongs Valiant was a British four-jet bomber,
once part of the Royal Air Forces V bomber force. As the Valiant
was an entirely new class of aircraft for the RAF, 232 Operational
Conversion Unit was established at RAF Gaydon.
The first operational RAF unit to be equipped with the Valiant was 138 Squadron, also
at RAF Gaydon, though it later moved to RAF Wittering. At its peak, the Valiant equipped
at least seven RAF squadrons.
A Valiant B.1 (WZ366) of No 49 Squadron (captained by Squadron Leader E.J.G. Flavell AFC) was
the first RAF aircraft to drop a British operational atomic bomb when it performed a test drop of a
down-rated Blue Danube weapon on Maralinga, South Australia, on 11 October 1956. It was the
last time the V-bombers flew a war mission until Avro Vulcans bombed Port Stanley airfield in the
Falkland Islands during the Falklands War in 1982.

The Valiant was the first of the V-bombers to see combat,

bombs on Egyptian targets. Also On May 15, 1957 a 49
Squadron Valiant B(K).1 dropped the first British hydrogen
bomb, the Short Granite (AKA Green Granite Small), over the
Pacific as part of Operation Grapple.

XH558 was the last Vulcan to leave RAF service,

In 1997, a small team headed by Dr Robert Pleming started
to put together an audacious plan to return her to flight, but it
was clear from the start that the project would be technically
challenging & enormously expensive. Never deterred, the team
set off down the path that led to XH558s return to the air.
