would it matter if you bought the Classic Airframes De Havilland Vampire
single seat export version or the Vampire FB.5?

What is the difference between the T.22/T.35 and the T.55 that the Swedish Air Force bought??

inte min påse då men.
Hi Jan
If I remeber this you need the F5 Vampire to build an Swedish J28A.There is no ejektorseat in this bird, so stick to a plane seat. I have some closeup on the J28A at Malmen museum

There is an book about the Swedish Vampires, one half swedish the second in English. Written by Bo Wideberg if i remember this correct. I can look it up for you.
Cheer

Would this be the correct version of the De Havilland trainer to get for Swedish Air Force?


Was the only difference between the T.11, T.22, T.33, T.34, T.35 and the T.55 versions that the T.11 was built for RAF, the T.22 for RN, the T.33, 34 and 35 for RAAF and the T.55 for other countries Air Forces that needed a two seat trainer? Was there any external differences between them? Or was it just the electronics that could be different?
