EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black-and-white photograph, the de Havilland Vampire NF.10 prototype (G-5-2) soars through the sky, leaving a trail of vapor in its wake. Taken by renowned aviation photographer Charles E. Brown in September 1950, this image captures a pivotal moment in postwar aviation history as the Royal Air Force (RAF) tested this advanced jet fighter. The Vampire NF.10 was a night fighter variant of the de Havilland Vampire, which first entered service with the RAF in 1947. This prototype, with its distinctive wingtip fuel tanks and enlarged tailfin, was designed to improve the Vampire's night fighting capabilities. The aircraft was equipped with AI.Mk.7 radar and an oblique-scanning AI.22 cooling system, which allowed the radar to function effectively even when the engine was at full power. The Vampire NF.10 represented a significant advancement in jet technology for the RAF, and its introduction marked the end of the propeller-driven night fighters that had dominated the skies during World War II. This photograph offers a glimpse into the excitement and innovation of the postwar era as the RAF explored the possibilities of jet technology and pushed the boundaries of aviation design. Charles E. Brown's photograph is an essential addition to any aviation enthusiast's collection, providing a unique perspective on the history of military aviation and the evolution of the de Havilland Vampire. The image captures the power, grace, and sophistication of this iconic aircraft as it took to the skies for the first time as a night fighter prototype.
