Photo Comment

Built in June 1945 and found at Tan Son Nhut Airfield, Saigon. It was transferred to the UK by sea in August 1946, and after a long period of storage at various locations, arrived at Cosford in around 1961. The RAF maintenance serial 8476M was allocated on 13 February 1976. Displayed at Hendon from November 2003, returned to Cosford in 2011 and put on display again on 30 January 2012. It is the only known survivor of its type.
