The Avro Canada CF-100 Canuck was a pre-production version of the regular Canuck. Only five of them were made as they intended to be test aircrafts.
They were also powered by the Orenda 2 engine that also powered the two prototypes and one of them was fitted with dual controls in order to make it a trainer aircraft. It was labelled as the Mk.2T.
Apparently, nowadays at least one of them is conserved as a gatekeeper at the CFB St.Jean in the Canadian province of Quebec.
