Not a fighter: this looks like the T-11 two-seat RAF trainer.

My dad used to fix these in the RNZAF in the late 50's. Heard a few stories about these as a kid. I think he said that the variant he worked on actually had a wooden airframe!

@neocoders The Vampire DH.99 was modified to a mixed wood and metal construction in light of Ministry of Aircraft Production recommendations, and the design was renumbered to DH.100 by November 1941.

In 1958 I was leaving the ferry at Galata bridge and saw a huge superstructure over the ancient part of town.  It was HMS Eagle and I met some crew members and got invited aboard so saw Vampire jets up close. Not a big plane at all. I had my first English tea on board. Big urns filled with tea that had the milk mixed in. I like tea that way nowm:)
