Rhodesian Air Force Vampires

This Vampire FB.52 is not of the Rhodesian Air Force, but of the Zimbabwean one, from 1980, Rhodesia is renamed.
The proof is that this Vampire carry the Zimbabwean roundel.

The Vampire FB.52 were given to Rhodesia by South Africa in the 70s. Originally, the Rhodesians had received Vampire FB.9s from Great Britain, but they had been withdrawn in the late 1960s.
