The first RAF aircraft capable of exceeding 500mph, the Vampire was also the first single engined jet powered aircraft to cross the Atlantic Ocean, marking it as one of the most important of the word's early jets.
The FB.5 fighter bomber was the most important variant of the aircraft with 1123 aircraft built and 930 seeing service with the RAF - those destined for service overseas were disignated FB.9 and had cockpit air conditioning.
