The first major production model was the IIID which first flew in 1920 and was operated by the Royal Air Force and Fleet Air Arm as well as the air forces of Portugal (11 aircraft) and Australia which received six IIIDs, the first being delivered in August 1921.
The most prolific and enduring of the Fairey IIIs was the final model, the IIIF which entered service with the RAF in Egypt in 1927, and with the Royal New Zealand Air Force shortly after.
The Fairey IIIF was also the basis for development of the Fairey Gordon and Fairey Seal.
