The Hawker Siddeley HS-125 was originally designed at De Havilland as small business jet. It went into production at Hawker Siddeley. First flight was August 1962. Several versions appeared and the first Type also entered military service and was called the T.1 Dominie by the RAF.
Later the British Aerospace (BAe) developed it further as BAe 125 with stretched fuselage, new engines and systems. It was also manufactured by US Raytheon as U-125. In total some 1720 were manufactured.
