XF426 was built as an F.6 and served with 208 Squadron RAF before conversion to FR.10 standard. She was presented to the Royal Jordanian Air Force and re-serialled as 853. During 1975 she was gifted to the Sultan of Oman's Air Force (later Royal Air Force of Oman). By 1993 she had been retired and in 2003 RAFO donated her to the RAF Museum at Hendon, where she served as a gate guard. In March 2017 she was transferred to Cosford where she remains in open storage. (Information from Thunder and Lightnings.co.uk)
