I saw one of these yesterday in a museum. I didn't realise how large they were!

The Javelin is the Typhoons Grandfather

Very nice footage though.

It wasn't called the flat iron for nothing !

With those wings it should be airborne with a table fan!

Flat Iron.

Hard to say for sure. There were 9 versions altogether, most of the differences were radar and engines and guns/missiles. My dad was a navigator on them, we have several home movies like this. The government didn't help - there was a Defence White Paper in 1957 that said the manned fighter was obsolete, came out just as the early versions were being developed.

Supersonic? it would have fallen to bits if it had done that and would have run out of fuel in minutes.

It was subsonic but like many subsonic aircraft of its class and time it could go supersonic briefly in certain circumstances like tight turns or pulling out of a shallow dive. It did not break up in such circumstances if flown correctly, which thankfully it usually was.

Actually, it could reach mach 1.08 in a dive easily at altitude. Ideal case was a 15 degree dive from 40,000ft usually hitting past mach 1 before reaching 35,000ft. At sea level she could hit about 1160kph which is slightly more than the Hunter. The reheat on the Javelin wasn't actually that fuel intensive either and rather limited, compared to other jets at the time like the MiG-19 which if it used reheat continuously could be dry in about 7 minutes especially at lower altitudes.

stop using warthunder as your main source of historical info. This was supersonic under the right circumstances and was not ever reported to rip apart in flight after the pre production model.

@@danielreardon6453 Yes it was, at first in 1940. But then after the valiant Hurricane successfully held the line that cut the Heinkels, Dorniers und Junkers into unusable halves, the heavier Typhoon was given another kind of mission it fulfilled in a staggering way. For the nazis that is.
