Raise a glass to the Fleet Air Arm with this classic glass pint tankard.

The ever popular Fly Navy logo is carefully etched rather than printed so it will last forever and not disappear courtesy of the dishwasher.

Exclusive to Navy Wings.

Cheers!

Success at Taranto changed the balance of power in the Mediterranean. This not only had dramatic repercussions in naval terms, but also in assisting the North African Campaign and providing the blue print for the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbour. It started the decline in importance of the capital ship as the aircraft carrier rose to the ascendant. Something of such significance should be commemorated properly and we think that this very special coin does just that. 

Carefully enamelled to show a Swordfish in the thick of the battle on the front and a detailed close up of a Swordfish and brave crew on the reverse, this is a dramatic collectors piece.

The Fleet Air Arm's reputation for getting things done is encapsulated in their renowned 'Can Do' attitude and 'Find, Fix, Strike' motto. Wear these pin badges and key rings with pride or they make great gifts.

That's the spirit!

High quality enamel badges.

Mugs - Handwash recommended

The Swordfish was a truly extraordinary aircraft with a service record that few aircraft have matched. The images of LS326 and W5856 by Stephen Ward capture her in her element, prowling through troubled skies. Sentinel. Protector.

W5856 and LS326 are the last flying Fairey Swordfish in the world and your help keeps them in the air where they belong.

One tends to think of promotional brochures as being associated with a new car or double glazing rather than (what was) a state of the art warplane.

However, we have obtained a rare original Hawker Aircraft Ltd brochure extolling the capabilities of the Sea Fury from which we have made faithful reproductions. It gives details of the specifications, variants, usage and performance of this great aircraft as it was promoted to the public and military customers across the globe in the 1950's. 

If you're a fan of this superb aircraft, this will tell you all you need to know and is an essential addition to any collection.

20 are available that have been signed by Sea Fury Pilot Brian Ellis who, while flying a Sea Fury, shot down a MiG15 jet during the Korean War..

The Great British Take Off design is our most popular so here it is again, bigger and bolder than ever.

It invokes the history and challenges of flying from ships at sea and commemorates the achievements and sacrifice of those who have gone before.

Its message is clearly stated: 'Fleet Air Arm - The Great British Take Off'. Enough said!

Perhaps not ideal for a certain famous Danish lager, but still 'probably' the best Battle of Taranto mug in the world. We'd like to say the same about the table mat and cushion.

The mug is ideal for coffee, tea, hot chocolate and possibly even a tot of rum!

Both offer details of the Naval Air Squadrons involved, the individual aircrews, the aircraft and their markings, munitions carried, flight movements, damage inflicted etc.

They are both a history lesson and a commemoration of a highly successful, innovative and critical naval air action in which individuals demonstrated extreme courage.

What an extraordinary aircraft the Fairey Swordfish turned out to be. Born at the end of the biplane era, this was an aircraft apparently totally unsuited to fight the war in which it became embroiled. Despite being deemed obsolete at the onset of hostilities, it not only outlived aircraft designed to replace it, but it gave sterling service, virtually unchanged, in all theatres throughout the war.

This reliable and manoeuvrable aircraft, much loved by its crews, had it's major honours at Taranto and in the sinking of the Bismarck, but it also played a huge part in the Battle of the Atlantic and with the Arctic convoys as well as campaigns across the globe.

This is the story of the marathon 26 month restoration of the world's oldest flying Fairey Swordfish, W5856, filmed at their Brough factory by British Aerospace in the 90's. 

W5856 is currently hangared with the Navy Wings Heritage Flight at RNAS Yeovilton and is still a regular and popular display aircraft at air shows around the UK.

Comics normally feature the unbelievable or the fantasy superhero. 'The Stringbags' features both of those - the unbelievable achievements of the World War Two Swordfish and the heroism of their crews.

Produced in graphic form, this excellent book is superbly illustrated. Both writer and artist have paid a great deal of attention to detail as they portray events in which the Fairey Swordfish played a pivotal role - The Battle of Taranto, the sinking of the Bismarck and the Channel Dash etc. 

Written and illustrated by a multi award winning team who have worked with DC and Marvel!

Young or old, the graphic presentation enhances the pithy narrative rather than detracting from it.

Comic in format, but not in content. Very much like the FAA itself, this book has real heart and deals well with being simultaneously academic, informative, entertaining, respectful, reverential and emotive.

Fun in the sun. In the interests of boat safety this is clearly a reference to turning left rather than anything to do with any alleged traditional association between sailing and alcoholic refreshment!

Comfortable and easy to wear whether manning the oars, manning the barbeque or just messing about on the river. 

High quality (200gsm) T shirts with a fun logo that will appeal to anyone with a love of boats whatever the shape or size (of boat that is!). Great gift idea.
