This a Wildcat firing a torpedo for the first time.
825 Naval Air Squadron spent two days over Falmouth Bay practicing torpedo attacks, culminating in the launch of a Sting Rant dummy weapon.
The Wildcat HMA Mk2 is beginning to enter front-line service – the first is currently on deployment with HMS Lancaster in the Atlantic – and although it’s undergone extensive trials and testing over the past five years, until now it’s not dropped a torpedo.
Some 62 Wildcats are set to replace the RN’s and RAF’s aging fleet of Lynx helicopters over the next few years.
