The Vickers Type 151 Jockey was an experimental low-wing monoplane interceptor fighter powered by a radial engine.
[1] The Type 151 Jockey was a compact and rather angular, low cantilever wing monoplane, built using the Wibault-Vickers corrugated skinned all-metal method as used on the Vireo.
The unstressed skin was riveted onto a largely duralumin structure, a few steel tubes forming highly stressed members.
[2] A rear fuselage vibration was at first thought to be aerodynamic but proved to be structural; it was cured after Barnes Wallis redesigned the internal bracing.
The same aircraft was renamed the Type 171 Jockey when the Mercury was replaced by a 530 horsepower (400 kW) supercharged Bristol Jupiter VIIF.
