The Hawker Hunter is a transonic British jet-powered fighter aircraft that was developed by Hawker Aircraft for the Royal Air Force (RAF) during the late 1940s and early 1950s. The unit cost was about £100,000 in 1956 (equivalent to £2.5 million today)
The Hawker Hunter in the painting was built at Blackpool for he Royal Air Force in 1956 as a single seat Mk.4 variant and was later converted by Hawker into a two seat T.8 trainer version and delivered to the Royal Navy at Lossiemouth.
She remained in service with the Royal Navy in various roles and assignments, and was retired in 1994. Early in 2007 the Dutch Hawker Hunter Fundation has been granted permission by the CAA to fly this aircraft in full authentic Dutch markings without visibly carrying its British registration. G-BWGL and the Dutch serial ‘N-321' instead.
