Operated by 7 Squadron. Delivered as a B.2 to the RAF in late 1953 before being sold to BAe in 1981. It was retired from service and was scrapped in 1988, thankfully the cockpit was saved and sold on to a private collector. The owner put the cockpit on loan to No.2405 ATC Sqn based in Gairlock. It was then moved to Morayvia Museum, Kinloss, where it was repainted and placed undercover on display.
