A23-1001, the sole CA-4, was lost when it exploded in midair near Kilmore, Victoria, on January 15, 1943. A fuel leak was the suspected cause. Work had already started on a production version, the CA-11 Woomera. 105 were ordered, then trimmed to 20 and finally only the first, A23-1, was completed and flown. It and the incomplete aircraft were sold for scrap. Photo from: State Library of South Australia

A94-922 was used during testing the de Havilland Blue Jay missile. The Blue Jay was ultimately developed as the Firestreak. The trials were not without danger. A DH technician was killed when a Blue Jay fitted to a Sabre accidentally fired in a hangar at Woomera. Evetts Field is a more remote satellite airfield for Woomera. The RAAF, despite its role in the Blue Jay/Firestreak trials, never adopted the British missile, opting instead for the Sidewinder. A94-922 was returned to 81 Wing.

Unofficially dubbed the Kangaroo, the CA-15 was developed as a replacement for the P-51 Mustang then in production in Australia as the Commonwealth CA-17/18. The CA-15 was powered by a Rolls-Royce Griffin engine. Flew in 1946 by which time it was clear the jet fighter was the future. The RAAF opted to stick with the proven Mustang until DH Vampires were delivered in 1949. A62-1001 was scrapped c.1950. Photo from: Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation

The RAAF took on charge a single Viking on loan from the RAF during nuclear weapons testing. Allocated the serial A82-1 but it was not applied to the aircraft. It was returned to the UK government in 1951 after four years' service in Australia. VL321 was disposed of in 1955 becoming G-AOCH. Photo from: National Archives of Australia
