    Hmm, looks like a Hawker design.

    It looks like a Blackburn Firecrest behind it.
    Edit - maybe not

    I think the one with a pointy vertical fin, upper right, is a Boulton-Paul P.111.

    I think so. But now I think it is a Blackburn Firebrand B-45?
    The jet in front of it is not a Blackburn, though.

    I'm guessing Hawker or Supermarine prototype. I'm sure that's a P.111 in the background.

    Couldn't that just be a Sea Fury?

    Ok, that must be it. The Jet is a Supermarine prototype.
