<b>Supermarine Swift</b> is a British single-seat <a href="/wiki/Jet_propulsion" title="Jet propulsion">jet</a> <a href="/wiki/Fighter_aircraft" title="Fighter aircraft">fighter aircraft</a> that was operated by the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Air_Force" title="Royal Air Force">Royal Air Force</a> (RAF). It was developed and manufactured by <a href="/wiki/Supermarine" title="Supermarine">Supermarine</a> during the 1940s and 1950s. The Swift featured many of the new jet age innovations, such as a <a href="/wiki/Swept_wing" title="Swept wing">swept wing</a>. On 26 September 1953, a Swift F.4 piloted by <a href="/wiki/Commander" title="Commander">Commander</a> <a href="/wiki/Mike_Lithgow" title="Mike Lithgow">Mike Lithgow</a> broke the world absolute speed record, reaching a speed of 737.7 mph (1,187 km/h). </p><p>After a protracted development period, the Swift entered service as an <a href="/wiki/Interceptor_aircraft" title="Interceptor aircraft">interceptor aircraft</a> with the RAF in 1954. However, due to a spate of accidents incurred by the type, the Swift was grounded for a time, and had a relatively brief service life. The problems with the Swift led to a public scandal surrounding the development and performance of the aircraft, harming the reputations of the British government, the RAF, and the British aircraft industry. </p><p>Ultimately, the less problematic <a href="/wiki/Hawker_Hunter" title="Hawker Hunter">Hawker Hunter</a> assumed much of the role intended for the Swift and only half as many Swifts were manufactured as had once been intended. A later <a href="/wiki/Aerial_reconnaissance" title="Aerial reconnaissance">photo reconnaissance</a> variant of the Swift had resolved some of the teething problems, but that proved to be too late for it to regain favour. An advanced derivative of the Swift that was to be capable of <a href="/wiki/Transonic" title="Transonic">transonic</a> speeds, the <a href="/wiki/Supermarine_545" class="mw-redirect" title="Supermarine 545">Supermarine 545</a>, was also under development during the early 1950s. However, it was cancelled in 1955, principally due to the poor performance of the Swift. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Design_and_development">Design and development</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Supermarine_Swift&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Design and development"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Background">Background</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Supermarine_Swift&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Background"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>During 1945, the <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">Second World War</a> came to a close and a new post-war <a href="/wiki/Labour_Party_(UK)" title="Labour Party (UK)">Labour</a> government, headed by <a href="/wiki/Clement_Attlee" title="Clement Attlee">Clement Attlee</a>, came to power in Britain.<sup id="cite_ref-wood_40_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-wood_40-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The incoming Attlee government's initial stance on defence was that no major conflict would occur for at least a decade, and thus there would be no need to develop or to procure any new aircraft until 1957.

In particular, the RAF felt that a pair of proposed fighter aircraft from <a href="/wiki/Hawker_Aircraft" title="Hawker Aircraft">Hawker Aircraft</a> and <a href="/wiki/Supermarine" title="Supermarine">Supermarine</a> were of great importance and, in the same year, ordered the proposed fighters "off the drawing board".<sup id="cite_ref-wood_45_46_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-wood_45_46-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Supermarine design was designated as the <i>Type 541</i>, and was essentially an advanced development of the earlier Type 510 experimental aircraft.<sup id="cite_ref-wood_46_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-wood_46-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The initial order placed in 1950 for 100 aircraft was intended to serve as an insurance policy in the event that Hawker failed to produce a viable aircraft.
