During its career as preserved aircraft this Avon Sabre TS-1622 has assumed various identities and colour schemes. When this photo was taken, it was marked with fake registration "TS-8690". Strangely, when it had fantasy colours in the 00s, the serial TS-1622 was correctly painted on!

Received at the end of 1956 and assigned to RAAF Butterworh in Malaysia in 1959, this Sabre served with 79 Sqn at Ubon, Thailand during the period 1962 to 1968. In 1963 it suffered a collision with A94-943 and was repaired in situ using the port wing of that aircraft. Formerly displayed on gate of RAAF Williamtown, it is now immaculately presented in the Fighter Town museum.

The Marksmen was an aerobatic team that used the RR Avon-engined Sabre. A94-922 was retained by the RAAF in storage until 1994 when it was swapped for a collection of Douglas Boston components needed for a museum project. The Sabre changed hands a couple of times and was shipped to Ardmore, New Zealand, for restoration to airworthy. That work stopped in 2005 but it remained in excellent condition in 2017.

A94-922 was used during testing the de Havilland Blue Jay missile. The Blue Jay was ultimately developed as the Firestreak. The trials were not without danger. A DH technician was killed when a Blue Jay fitted to a Sabre accidentally fired in a hangar at Woomera. Evetts Field is a more remote satellite airfield for Woomera. The RAAF, despite its role in the Blue Jay/Firestreak trials, never adopted the British missile, opting instead for the Sidewinder. A94-922 was returned to 81 Wing.

Received at the end of 1956 and assigned to RAAF Butterworh in Malaysia in 1959, this Sabre served with 79 Sqn at Ubon, Thailand during the period 1962 to 1968. In 1963 it suffered a collision with A94-943 and was repaired in situ using the port wing of that aircraft. Formerly displayed on gate of RAAF Williamtown, it is now immaculately presented in the Fighter Town museum.

In July 1954 A94-901 was the first Sabre to enter RAAF service. It was the second Avon Sabre built following the prototype and served with various squadrons. From 1961 to 1965 it was part of the 76 Sqdn 'Black Panthers' aerobatic team based at RAAF Williamtown and was struck off charge in 1966, then used as a gate guardian at Fishermans Bend. After being displayed at the Mildura Warbirds Museum, Vic, it was externally restored by Hawker de Havilland at Bankstown, moving to HARS in late 2006

Between 1973 and 1975, following the improvement in relations with Australia, 23 second-hand CAC-27 Sabres were donated to replace the MiG-21s with SkU.14 (Iswahjudi AB) that had become unserviceable due to the embargo on spares from the USSR. Five of them were also ex Malaysian. They were initially serialled with an F- prefix.
