Post-war military aircraft in British service
Over time I am building up this section to include details of all fighters which have either been designed for, or served with, British air arms since January 1946. The material is extracted from my book Aircraft in British Military Service 1946 - 1998. The following aircraft are presently on file with full specifications, operational and support service records and variant by variant photographs with many in colour.
The classic lines of the Hornet family are well illustrated in this fine shot of the Sea Hornet PR22 prototype TT187
