de Havilland Sea Vampire

Post by robcarrich »

New Sea Vampire F 20 for FSX acceleration.
As far as I know it has never been modelled in flight sim, That's not surprising as only 18 were ever built.
The Navy liked them but did not use them in front line service due to their restricted range.
There is also an AI version.
It’s now available at....

Lovely stuff, Rob. Is that the actual one that Eric Brown landed on HMS Ocean ?

It is, in fact, modeled as a Sea Vampire F20 of 771 squadron Southern Fleet Requirements Unit, as it would have appeared when at RNAS Ford in 1953.
The aircraft that made the first deck landing was the second prototype LZ551, with the old style high tailplane layout.
Thank you to all for the positive remarks.
