No 64 Squadron RAF was a night fighter squadron equipped with Meteor NF12s at Duxford during the fifties..

From August 1956, 64 Sqn operated Meteor NF14 night fighters from Duxford. In September 1958 64 Squadron's Meteors were replaced by Gloster Javelin FAW7s and blast walls were built to protect them.

The Javelin was the worlds first twin engine delta-wing fighter. It was designed to operate at high altitudes and in all-weathers, night or day and remained the RAF's main night fighter until 1964.
