A rather primitive jet fighter, the Attacker still had taildragger landing gear.

Although the Wyvern was designed as a turboprop-powered carrier-based strike aircraft, VR137 was built in 1947 at Yeovil as the seventh and last preproduction TF.Mk.1. It was the sole one fitted with a 2,690 hp Rolls-Royce Eagle 22 24-cylinder sleeve valve flat-H piston engine, but was never flown. Of the 127 built, this is the only survivor

Nowadays in the FAA Museum store with standard nose and RN grey/white paintwork, this Sea Vixen spent much of its flying career on various trials, including night and deck landing, carrying this striking black/white scheme for Martel missile tests from 1968. Only recently withdrawn when seen here, it was often moved, going to Portland, Ilkeston, Southampton and Fleetlands before settling back at Yeovilton

Of about 800 Albacores built, this is believed to be the only survivor. The type first flew in 1938 as a torpedo and dive-bomber, designed to replace the Swordfish though ultimately it was withdrawn before the aircraft it was designed to replace. It is seen in Cobham Hall, the Fleet Air Arm Museum Reserve Collection
