First delivered to Air Pacific as DQ-FBQ in March 1972 and leased to Air Malawi as 7Q-YKQ between July 1974 and November 1975. Acquired by the RAE in June 1984 for modification as a radar testbed and allocated ZE433. Used for Sea Harrier Blue Fox radar development and later to the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (DERA). Seen here fitted for Eurofighter Typhoon radar trails. Wfu by QinetiQ and stored at Boscombe Down from June 2008. Sadly broken up there in 2013. This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
