The first Venom first flew on 2 September 1949 and entered
RAF service in August 1952 as the Venom FB Mk I. This new multipurpose
fighter-bomber was faster and more agile than the Vampire. This Venom
is painted in the colors of the Iraqi Air Force.
This display aircraft was built, under license, in Switzerland and donated
to the IAF Museum by the Swiss Air Force.
