Historical authenticity and exceptional detail

De Havilland Vampire F.3 was one of the first jet fighters in aviation history, entering service with the Royal Air Force (RAF) of Great Britain in the late 1940s. The aircraft became part of the RAF's inventory in the period after World War II (the Cold War) and was also exported to other European countries and the Middle East. The F.3 took part in training and air shows, strengthening Britain’s reputation as a jet pioneer. The Vampire F.3 variant was used mainly by the RAF, as well as the air forces of Canada, Sweden, and Norway between 1947–1953.
