Historical Information

The de Havilland Vampire T.11 is a British advanced trainer aircraft, developed from the Vampire fighter. The T.11 variant debuted in 1950 and was extensively used by the RAF (Royal Air Force) as well as the air forces of many allied countries, including Australia, India, and Canada. These aircraft served both in pilot training and in conducting training flights during the Cold War period. They remained in service until the late 1960s, distinguished by their unusual twin-boom configuration and characteristic crew cockpit shape.
