Originally built as a T.4 for the RAF as XM992, first flown on 13th December 1961 and served with 111 Squadron. Bought back by BAC and converted to a T.54, she was delivered to the RSAF as 54-651 in June 1966 and later renumbered as 54-608. She was badly damaged in a starter fire in 1970. Ex 54-651, T.54 Prince Sultan Air Base (gate guard), Al Kharj, Saudi Arabia.
