The Fairey Delta 2 or FD2 (internal designation Type V within Fairey) was a British supersonic research aircraft produced by the Fairey Aviation Company in response to a specification from the Ministry of Supply for a specialised aircraft for conducting investigations into flight and control at transonic and supersonic speeds. Features included a delta wing and a droop-nose.

 

The final design was a single seater Delta wing aircraft powered by a Rolls Royce Avon engine with an after burner. To improve the pilots forward view during landind, taxiing and take off the cockpit nose section could be hinged downwards by ten degrees

 

Fairey test pilot Peter Twiss flew the first flight FD2 WG774 on its maiden flight on the 6th October 1954, and on the 10th March 1956 made an attempt on the World Air Record, which he broke by more than 300mph recording a speed of 1132mph to claim the record set only one year earlier by a USAF F-100 Super Sabre

A common track day car. Countless mods can be done to it for a fun at the track. Love the widebody kit on this FD2 too.
