:o that is one ugly aircraft!

From the looks of the nose and the engine intakes, I would say they nicked the front of that aircraft from a Venom or Vampire. In the middle of the aircraft, you can see that the metal sags a bit and is a different colour from the rest of it, which leads me to believe that it's two aircraft stuck together!

Other than that, I dunno :-?

Not sure if it is a 'mix' of aircraft - the 'bottling' in the middle is a method of improving stability during high speed flight - common on military aircraft.

When I first looked at it, I thought Canberra...but then I looked up a Canberra to refresh my memory and it's sure as hell not that...so I'm going with a cut and shut too. 8)

This should explain the origins of the 'Vennet':

A mixture of two Sea Venoms and a Fairey Gannet :)
