The Blackburn Firebrand was a British single-engine strike fighter for the Fleet Air Arm. Designed during WWII, it was originally intended to serve as a pure fighter, but its modest performance (and the priority allocation by the Ministry of Aircraft Production of Napier Sabre engines to the Hawker Typhoon), caused it to be redesigned with an alternate engine as a strike fighter to take advantage of its load-carrying capability. Development was slow and the first production aircraft was not delivered until after the end of the war. Only a few hundred were built before it was withdrawn from front-line service in 1953.
