This British prototype was conceived as a testbed high speed tailless swept-wing jet to specification E.18/45. The MikroMir kit can best be built as the second prototype, TG306 (and briefly VN860), as it appeared at the Society of British Aircraft Constructors September 12/13, 1946, show- with some modifications to the decals. (The first low speed prototype, TG283, had a 43 degree sweep to the wings versus the kits' 45 degrees. The second later had a different canopy, puttied panel lines, and a repaint. The third, VW120, was considerably different in the nose and canopy.)
