de Havilland Sea Hornet in Australian Service

In 1948 a de Havilland Sea Hornet F.20 TT213 was delivered to Australia for tropical trials. Received by No. 1 Aircraft Depot on 8 June 1948 it was given the Royal Australian Air Force registration A83-1, although this was never applied to the airframe.

On 10 September 1948 it was delivered to ARDU (the Aircraft Research and Development Unit). The Sea Hornet was flown by RAAF pilots for 49 hours on Ministry Of Supply tests before it was returned to No 1AD on October 20 1950. It was returned to de Havilland on 6 March 1951.
