This is an ex-Royal Navy Firefly of 1950 vintage which was transferred to the RAN in 1953 by sea after refurbishing by Fairey. In 1961 it underwent conversion to TT.6 for target towing duties and was eventually allocated to the FAA Museum, where it was restored to flight in 1986 as VH-NVU and finished in a camouflage scheme. However engine problems meant that the RAN Historic Flight soon had to ground it.

This Firefly was delivered to the Royal Navy on 30 June 1950. A couple of years later it was refurbished by Fairey for delivery by sea to the Royal Australian Navy, arriving in Australia in March 1953. In 1961 it was converted to a TT.6 by Brain & Brown at Avalon. After operational use the aircraft was allotted to the Naval Aviation Museum, Nowra where it was eventually restored to airworthy condition, being civil registered as VH-NVU(1) on 30 September 1986. Engine trouble resulted in a short life and the civil registration was cancelled on 31 January 2020.
