Historical information:

The Sea Vampire F.20 is the naval version of the famous de Havilland Vampire – the first British jet fighter. The model represents an aircraft adapted for operations from Royal Navy aircraft carriers, used mainly in the years 1945–1953, during the Cold War and right after World War II. The Sea Vampire F.20 played a key role in training navy pilots and in testing carrier operations for the new generation of jet fighters. It was the first British jet aircraft to land on an aircraft carrier, which took place on HMS Ocean in December 1945. Setting new standards for naval aviation, this aircraft became a lasting part of aviation history.
