Built in 1954 as a Canberra B.2 serving with 207 Sqdn and 35 Sqdn. Became one of nine B.2s converted to a T.11 standard to train radar operators for Javelins and after a short spell at 228 OCU, the aircraft joined the Target Facilities Squadron at West Raynham which was renamed as 85 Sqdn in 1963 and moved to Binbrook. Modified once more to a T.19 and later flew with 7 Sqdn at St Mawgan before retirement in 1979. Sold to BAC for possible export sales, the aircraft was donated to the Newark Air Museum in 1985 and is current in their collection at the time of upload
