Correct serial is XN962. This aircraft was delivered to the Royal Navy during July 1964 and served at Lossiemouth until 1970. Thereafter she was transferred to St. Athan and allocated the Maintenance serial 8181M before being moved to PEE (Proof & Experimental Establishment) at Foulness 1986. Unfortunately the axeman came calling and she was broken up in 1992, although the nose section has at least survived and is now on display at Cosford.
