This Javelin made the last ever flight of type when it was delivered to Duxford in January 1975, after service with the A&AEE at Boscombe Down where chase and calibration work had included trials as part of the SC.9, Concorde and MRCA programmes. It was orinaly built as an FAW.7 and served 5, 25 and 33 Sqdns before acquiring the high visibility paintwork with A&AEE. My shot here shows it taking off from Coltishall in 9173

Written off (damaged beyond economical repair) 11 May 1967: Suffered a heavy landing at Manston, Kent. Damage was only slight but with the impending withdrawal from service of the Javelin XH764 was struck off charge as Cat.5(G/I) and allocated to 7972M. As a result, XH764 was put on display at Manston. Ironically XH764 had been en route to 27 MU, RAF Shawbury for storage pending disposal, as 29 Squadron had just re-equipped with the Lightning F.3. XH764 (7972M) was scrapped by Hanningfield Metals, Stock, Essex, by April 1990.

Javelins of No 23 Sqn at RAF Coltishall. For a dedicated air defence fighter, the Javelin saw quite a bit of overseas service. XH778, in the foreground, was written off at Nicosia in Cyprus in 1963. Upgraded to FAW.9 standard, XH779 was shipped to Singapore in November 1964, becoming aircraft S of No 60 Sqn at Tengah. Withdrawn from active service in November 1966. Scrapped.

As with several aircraft at the museum, the serial and squadron marks are fake. The correct serial is XH768 which retired from service with 29 squadron in November 1966 and was subsequently used as instructional airframe 7929M at RAF Cranwell. From there it was displayed at the Historic Aircraft Museum at Southend and went to Air Classik in Germany before moving to Italy in 1995. The aircraft underwent some restoration in 2022.
