While the French industry was struggling to recover, the British could show state-of-the-art war machines at the 1946 Salon. VB857 was a Sea Fury prototype begun by Boulton-Paul, but with the end of the war in sight, Sea Fury production at Boulton-Paul was cancelled and VB857 was completed by Hawker. Of the two Gloster Meteor F.4s, the rear one with the long-span wing is EE549, then holder of the official absolute world speed record at 991 km/h (616 mph).

The fifth prototype of the final version of the Barracuda. Fitted with a RR Griffin engine because the Merlin-engined Barracuda was considered underpowered. With World War II over and the Royal Navy's needs changing, only 37 were built. Photo from: Imperial War Museums
