About the de Havilland DH112 Venom

The late 1940s marked the development of the Venom, with the first prototype, the DH.112, taking flight on September 2, 1949. The aircraft aimed to address the Vampire’s limitations, such as speed, range, and payload capacity. The Venom boasted a thinner wing, an upgraded de Havilland Ghost engine, and a more streamlined fuselage. It also featured an advanced ejection seat system for the pilot’s safety.
