What was the recalled aircraft conversion from propellers to jet engines?
Short answerNo designation is established beyond its remembered testbed role. A related proposal gives Sea Meteor the improvements made to later Meteors.
NotesA recalled propeller aircraft converted to jet engines remains unidentified beyond its remembered use as a testbed. Sea Meteor provides a related example of an aircraft that existed without becoming a service type. The proposed alternative gives it the improvements made to later Meteors. Retaining the Mark III airframe would leave structural limitations when heavier improved engines were fitted to its wings.
