Description
This is the de Havilland DH-112 Venom FB.50 Fighter-Bomber, like many de Havilland Jet designs it has twin booms like the DH-100 Vampire before it, only minor differences are the engine and Fuel Tanks on the wingtips.
The Venom is powered by 1 de Havilland Ghost 103 turbojet with 4,850 lbf (21.6 kN), flown by a single pilot and armed with 4 20 mm (.70 in) Hispano Mk. V Cannons with 150 rpg and can also carry external stores such as the RP-3 "60lb" (27 kg) Rocket and the 1000 lb MC Bomb.
I took this photo 15th July at the 2012 Farnborough Airshow.

Yes this is the Venom owned and operated by the Classic Flight who currently base their aircraft at Coventry. I believe though, that this is an FB.50 rather than FB.1.
I see that it is also sitting next to the flight's latest addition the Gloster Meteor T.7, she is a real stunner of an aircraft. I took this shot of her back in May at Duxford, the sound of those engines were superb. [link]
