History

Tested by ATAIU-SEA at Tebrau AB, Malaya during 1946

This was one of four aircraft shipped from RAF Seletar back to the UK, arriving there in 1946. It was displayed at RAF Biggin Hill and RAF St. Athan, where it was stored until 1989. In 1989, after the closing of the St. Athan collection, it was transferred to Aerospace Museum at RAF Cosford and there underwent restoration from 1992 till 1994 with the financial support from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, and has been displayed there ever since.[1]
