No.56 Squadron - The Firebirds
No.56 Squadron is one of the RAFs senior squadrons with many battle honours with notable airmen including James McCudden and Albert Ball among the ranks. In the 1960s the Squadron had an aerobatic team called the Firebirds, consisting of nine Lightning F.1As. Phantom FGR.2s and Tornado F3s followed as its operational aircraft. 56 Squadron now serves as the Air Command and Control Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Operational Evaluation Unit. This design has been given a deliberate aged and 'weathered' appearance.
