The Barracuda Project, also known as Barracuda Live: The Big Rebuild is an ongoing project by the Fleet Air Arm Museum to reconstruct a Fairey Barracuda.
The exhibition aims to inform visitors how the project aims to restore a non-flying Barracuda using salvaged wreckage components and newly manufactured parts – to a non-flying replica.
The project also serves to honor the individuals who built, flew, and maintained the aircraft, while preserving a significant piece of aviation history.
