Javelin FAW.1 XA564 at RAF Cosford, 17th May 2007; author
With XA553's departure, there is now only a single Mk.1 Javelin left in the UK, which is XA564. She sat outside in the weather at the RAF Museum at Cosford for many years but survived remarkably well, patiently waiting to be brought inside. Happily this has now happened, and she is hung from the roof of the Cold War Exhibition and looks great.

Great exhibition however it is annoying that many aircraft inside the cold war exhibition have no squadron markings. It seems they repaint the aircraft in the stock paint scheme and just add the number and raf roundels?
