writes Hello Information on the Vampires and Venoms sought Were they ever used in wartime and were they successful in their rolls. The RAF used Venoms in Operation Firedog in Malaya against the communist forces there. They also used Venoms extensively in the Middle East for ground attack against dissident tribes, etc. and in the Suez business in 1956. What aircraft if any did they fly against The Egyptian Air Force flew Vampires against Israeli Meteors and Mystères in 1956, but lost several in air-to air combat. Pictures of any actions would be appreciated Not on this subject but still aircraft related did the British give to the Russians Rolls Royce engines and technology that could have been used against Americans in Korea As ®i©ardo said, the Labour government did supply the Nene to the USSR. Clement Atlee and his friends thought Uncle Joe was a nice chap, so decided to help him. What happened in Korea was that pilots from the USSR were flying the Mig 15 powered by Klimov versions of the Nene, while the USN had the F9F-2 powered by the Nene-based J42.
