Operated by 849 Sqdn HQ Flt. Originally the first T.2 WN365, then operated by the Indonesian Navy for a year as AS-14 and converted to T.5 status as G-APYO, registered February 1960. To XT752 in August 1966. Retired as the Royal Navy's last operational Gannet in 1978 and sold to the Polar Air Museum as N752XT.
