"I have checked my book 'The Design and Development of the Hawker Hunter' (History Press 2014 - cannot believe it is nearly 6 years old!) and it appears that all three P.1109s were built as standard Mk.6s, but converted very quickly. Dates are included. Blatant advertising I know, but the book contains a pretty full and in depth review of the P.1109 programme."
I've got a 3 view drawing of the delta P.1092 which has a scale bar and gives an overall length of 55ft 0inches but can't find anything on a P.1091. Were they related enough to compare the drawings and figure out the P.1091?Are there any published dimensions for the P.1091 Delta Hunter?
Checking. While you wait, here's a canard delta Hunter![]()
The commander of Lebanon’s Air Force, Brig. Gen. Ziad Haikal, recently told Defense News that Lortie Aviation had been in discussions with the service to procure the jets following a visit by company officials.
“After their procurement, the jets will be used as enemy fighters in training with the U.S. Air Force. The Hawker Hunter is a powerful aircraft and very maneuverable, and it fits this type of training,” he said.
From this book,have a good night.
