Intended for Navy use mainly in ASW, the Wessex was chosen instead.

RAF version was for heavylift/trooping but cancelled in favour of something similar (by the same manufacturer).
Oh and its British

Isn't the idea to post 1 shot then when someone is correct give them the opportunity to post a picture. Its very confusing having loads of pictures of different aircraft posted one after the other.
