Radioactive pollutants in the ocean mutate a dinosaur, a paleosaurus, which heads inland to the Thames to follows its species' natural instinct to die in the shallows. Along the way it spreads death and destruction, attacking boats, the radiation pouring off of its body burning victims to a crisp. American marine biologist Steve Karnes struggles to devise a means of further shortening the doomed dinosaur's already dwindling lifespan before it destroys all of London.
Hawker Sea Hawk FGA Mark 4
Karnes flies to meet the British admiralty in this jet. It is an Hawker Sea Hawk, produced from 1951 to 1961.
Unidentified Aircraft
Dr. Sampson uses this Royal Navy helicopter to search the Thames for the paleosaurus. It then gets destroyed after turning into a completely different model helicopter. A second one later hunts for the dinosaur at night.
Westland WS-55 Whirlwind
In a glaring continuity error, Sampson's helicopter changes into a completely different one moments before being destroyed. It's a british built version by Westland of the Sikorsky S-55.
