It had been in camouflage so I hope it has been stripped down for repainting. Delivered to the RAF on 17 Mar 1955. It never flew with a front line squadron instead being operated by the Air Fighting Development Squadron before becoming an instructional airframe in 1960 as 7770M at St Athan. Moved to Halton for ground instruction in Apr 1977. Sold to the museum in 1999 and had been repainted in 43 Squadron markings in 2008.
