Still based at AFB Ysterplaat, 22 Sqd is the SAAF's maritime helicopter squadron. The Wasps operated off the SA Navy's President Class frigates often with Vloot/Navy titles although not part of the Navy inventory. The museum's example carries the crest of SAS President Pretorius on the nose.

The South African contribution to the Korean War was 2 Sqd SAAF which initially operated F-51 Mustangs from Pusan AB. From January 1953, the Mustang was replaced with F-86F Sabres which the squadron operated on loan from the USAF until October that year when they were returned to the Americans. The experience was so good that the SAAF procured the Canadair Sabre Mk 6 with the first delivered in 1956. They served with the SAAF until 1980. Canadair Sabre 6 372 is displayed at the SAAF Museum at AFB Ysterplaat as 601/A of 2 Sqd as it would have looked in Korea.

This is actually a SAAF formation. The Cessna served with the light aircraft squadrons of the SAAF. The Chipmunk was delivered to the RAF's Rhodesian Air Training Group at RAF Heany outside Bulawayo in then Southern Rhodesia in 1951. The following year it suffered a mishap and was stored before sold to South Africa where it was restored and flown by SAAF crews under the auspices of the SAAF Museum. Here seen en-route to a fly-in at Margate, in the then Natal.
