31p Nimrod MR2

The Hawker Siddeley Nimrod was a maritime patrol aircraft designed in response to the RAFs need to replace its fleet of ageing Avro Shackletons. It served from the early 1970s until 2010.

76p Phantom

The McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom was one of the RAF’s principal combat aircraft from 1969 to the early 1990s. The UK was the first export customer for the Phantom which served in both the Fleet Air Arm and RAF in several roles including air defence, close air support, low-level strike and tactical reconnaissance.

£1.22 Harrier GR-3

Considered one of the country’s greatest technological achievements, the British-built Harrier jets were the first in the world to be able to take off and land vertically

£1.92 Typhoon

The Typhoon was designed by a European consortium to be the world's most advanced multirole combat aircraft. It is a single seat, twin-engine fighter capable of operating against targets that are beyond visual range or in close combat.
