This photograph showcases the Fleet Air Arm's de Havilland DH.115 Sea Vampire T.22 XA160 (msn 15502), a iconic aircraft that graced the skies during the 1950s and 1960s. Delivered to the Fleet Air Arm on 28 June 1954, this Sea Vampire served valiantly in the British naval aviation fleet. The Sea Vampire was a significant advancement in naval aviation technology, featuring a tailhook for arrested landings on aircraft carriers and the ability to operate from short runways. The Sea Vampire T.22 XA160 is depicted here in its prime, with its sleek lines and distinctive inverted gull wing design. The Sea Vampire was powered by a de Havilland Ghost 103 engine, which delivered impressive performance for the time. This particular aircraft was eventually retired from service and sold for scrap on 4 November 1965 at RNAS Brawdy. The Sea Vampire was an essential part of the Royal Navy's fleet, providing valuable training for pilots and contributing to the defense of the United Kingdom. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of naval aviation and the iconic aircraft that have shaped its legacy. The Sea Vampire remains a beloved model among aviation enthusiasts and a reminder of the thrill and excitement of flight during the mid-20th century.
