EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, we see the de Havilland Venom prototype VV612, a groundbreaking aircraft produced by modifying a Vampire FB.5 on the production line in 1949. The Venom F.1 was an evolution of the successful Vampire jet fighter, featuring moderately swept wings added to the fuselage and tail. This innovative design was a response to the increasing demand for high-performance jet trainers and light attack aircraft. One of the most notable features of the Venom prototype is its solid metal-skinned canopy. This design was introduced to accommodate cockpit pressurisation, allowing pilots to fly at higher altitudes with greater comfort and efficiency. Additionally, outer wings were fitted with tufts to investigate high-speed flow over the wings, providing valuable data for further refinements to the design. The Venom F.1 was a significant milestone in de Havilland's aviation history, representing a successful transition from the Vampire series to more advanced jet aircraft. With its advanced features and impressive capabilities, the Venom would go on to serve in various roles for the Royal Air Force and other international air forces for several decades. This photograph captures a moment in time when innovation and progress were at the forefront of aviation technology.
