    Historical context

    The Fairey Fireflash was the United Kingdom's first operational air-to-air guided missile. It entered brief Royal Air Force service in 1957 and was later replaced by the de Havilland Firestreak. The missile used radar beam-riding guidance and was primarily expended as a training weapon for missile-firing practice. Approximately 500 production rounds were built before the type was retired.
