Written off in a crash at Wildenrath on 23 April 1971 and later used by Rolls-Royce as a static engine test bed for the P1154, a proposed supersonic variant of the Harrier. Used for tests between 1983 and 1986 before the project was cancelled. Placed with the Bristol Aero Collection at Kemble until their closure in 2012 and subsequently moved to The Helicopter Museum where it was stored until being moved again, to the Hucknall Flight Test Museum, in January 2020.
