  Remarks  
Aparato de Patrulla marítima en exhibición en el Museo de la RAF en Cosford como uno de sus "gates guards".
Dotado de hélices y turborreactores subalares este modelo se donó a la RAF por parte de la Marina Real Holandesa en el año 2007, aunque se cedió en préstamo mucho antes, en el año 82.
El Neptune se diseñó para sustituir al Harpoon, siendo a su vez sustituido por un modelo casi desconocido para nosotros, el P-3 Orion :-)
