THE JET PROVOST T.3 | |
[History of the JP3] | [Known survivors] |
201 T.3's were ordered by the RAF (XM346-387, XM401-428, XM451-80, XN117, XN137, XN458-473, XN492-XN512, XN547-59, XN573-607, XN629-43). The numbers of survivors are healthy, no doubt helped by the type staying in service until 1992. A number however was scrapped in the 1960's and 70's, and a few have recently expired on fire dumps around the country. This leaves the following as known survivors at the time of writing (all based in the United Kingdom unless otherwise indicated):- |
