Work cat.: 2004484449: Walpole, Nigel. Swift justice, 2004:p. 8 (story of the Vickers Armstrong Supermarine Swift from its earliest days when it briefly held the world air speed record to its retirment from operational service early in 1961.) dust jacket (The Supermarine Swift was rushed into service with the RAF during 1954 to becone Britain's first second-generation jet fighter. In this role it was not deemed a success and has been burdened with a bad reputation sine that time. It was eventually replaced by the famous Hawker Hunter that had been extensively delayed because of teething troubles. Although the Swift was not successful as an interceptor fighter because of its poor performance at high altitude, it eventually found a vital role as a low-level, short-range reconnaissance aircraft operating on the edge of the Iron Curtain at the height of the Cold War.)
