The Hunting Percival Jet Provost was the primary training aircraft for the Royal Air Force (RAF) pilots. It was extensively used from the late 1950s until 1988, primarily during the Cold War period. It replaced earlier piston-engine aircraft, allowing future RAF pilots to learn jet flying skills. Among those trained on the Jet Provost were pilots who later flew the most modern jet fighters serving in Europe.
