EDITORS COMMENTS
"This stunning photograph captures the historic moment when the de Havilland Vampire LZ551 prototype takes off from the flight deck of HMS Ocean, marking the beginning of the Royal Navy's jet age in December 1945. The de Havilland Vampire was the world's first jet-powered fighter to enter production and was a significant advancement in postwar aviation technology. The Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm had been eager to incorporate jet technology into their fleet, and the Vampire was the answer to their prayers. HMS Ocean, a Royal Navy aircraft carrier, provided the ideal platform for testing and evaluating the capabilities of the new jet fighter. In this image, we see the Vampire's powerful jet engines producing a plume of smoke as it lifts off the carrier's deck, ready to soar into the sky. The de Havilland Vampire was a single-seat, single-engine fighter designed for both day and night interception and ground-attack roles. Its sleek design and advanced technology made it a formidable addition to the Royal Navy's fleet. The Vampire went on to serve in various roles with the Royal Navy, Royal Australian Navy, and other air forces around the world, making it a true icon of postwar aviation. This photograph is a testament to the innovation and determination of the Royal Navy and de Havilland Aircraft Company in pushing the boundaries of aviation technology in the aftermath of World War II. It is a reminder of the pivotal role that aircraft carriers played in shaping the future of military aviation and the Royal Navy's enduring commitment to staying at the forefront of technological advancements." Charles E Brown, a renowned aviation photographer, captured this iconic moment in history, preserving it for future generations to appreciate the ingenuity and courage of those who came before us.
