The de Havilland Vampire was Britain's second operational jet fighter, entering RAF service in 1946 and notable for its distinctive twin-boom layout with a short, pod-like fuselage housing the Goblin turbojet. The Mk.6 was an export variant with a modified nose profile, operated by a number of air forces including Switzerland, where it also served as a target tug in high-visibility colour schemes. Almost 3,300 Vampires were built in total, with the type serving into the 1970s in training roles with several operators.
