XD826 was scrapped in the mid-1960s but its nose section was kept by the RAF and used for a period as a Navigation and Bomb-aiming System procedures trainer. It then passed through a number of hands over the years before eventually being gifted to the IWM, arriving at Duxford on 9 December 2022. It will eventually be restored for proper display.

A photo from my Dad's collection when he was flying Gloster Javelin's with 64 Squadron. Dated 11 Oct 1963 I am not sure if he was flying one of these aircraft. What we have is a refueling sortie probably over the North Sea. The tanker is a Vickers Valiant BK1 XD820 of 90 Squadron based at RAF Honington in Suffolk. Being refuelled are 3 Gloster Javelin FAW9's of 64 Squadron based at RAF Binbrook in Lincolnshire. They are XH709 / K, XH708 / P and an aircraft coded G.
