Fairey Delta 2

Aircraft & Exhibits, FEB 1956-SEP 1967, Cosford, Hangar Two, 85/A/10

In the late 1940s Britain was trailing far behind in supersonic aircraft design. To try to retrieve matters the Ministry of Supply issued a specification for a supersonic research aircraft, and Fairey set about meeting this with a delta-winged aircraft designed for investigation into flight and control at transonic and supersonic speeds.
