This weird looking aircraft was part of the ill-fated Nimrod AEW3 project that was cancelled in favour of the Sentry due to massive cost overruns and delays. It was later later transferred to the fire section at RAF Kinloss as 8968M (RAF maintenance serial) where it was later broken up, a sad episode in British Aviation history.
