Gloster Javelin RAF 64 Squadron, XH766 Sky Guardians Europe 1:72 Diecast Model

The Gloster Javelin is a twin-engined all-weather interceptor aircraft that served with Britain's Royal Air Force from the mid-1950s until the late 1960s. It was a T-tailed delta-wing aircraft designed for night and all-weather operations and was the last aircraft design to bear the Gloster name. Introduced in 1956 after a lengthy development period, the aircraft received several upgrades during production to its engines, radar and weapons, including support for the De Havilland Firestreak air-to-air missile. The Javelin was succeeded in the interceptor role by the English Electric Lightning, a supersonic aircraft capable of flying at more than double the Javelin's top speed, which was introduced into the RAF only a few years later. The Javelin served for much of its life alongside the Lightning; the last Javelins were withdrawn from operational service in 1968 following the introduction of successively more capable versions of the Lightning. No.64 Squadron was a squadron of the Royal Air Force, first formed on 1 August 1916 as a squadron of the Royal Flying Corps. In its long history, the squadron flew many aircraft types from Royal Aircraft Factory S.E.5a to the Supermarine Spitfire to the Gloster Meteor. In September of 1958, the squadron was based at RAF Duxford when it transitioned from the Meteor to the Gloster Javelin. It relocated to RAF Waterbeach in 1961 and once again to RAF Tengah, Singapore in 1964. The squadron continued to fly the Javelin until it was disbanded in June 1967. Seen here is the Gloster Javelin FAW.Mk 9 from RAF No.64 Sqn, XH766, RAF Waterbeach, England, 1961 by Witty Wings Sky Guardians Europe in 1:72 Diecast.
