12 Advertisements. FLIGHT AUGUST 2ND, 1945 It happened at In a recent series of brilliantly executed attacks, " Fairey Firefly " high performance reconnaissance fighters operating from British aircraft carriers wrecked vital oil refineries and radar stations occupied by the Japanese. The Firefly is formidably armed with cannon guns, and can mount " the punch of a cruiser " in a heavy salvo of rocket projectiles. The actions at Sumatra add new Battle Honours to the long list already achieved in Fairey naval aircraft. The Fairey Aviation Company", only British company to design, develop and build in large quantities aircraft exclusively for the Royal Navy throughout the war, is proud of the glorious feats achieved by the British Naval Air Arm. —Mk ALAY' .STAT 'hi 1 > •> mr • ILL \ " J A V w JSTRIOUS i..
