Synopsis:
In February 1948, the Ministry of Supply issued a specification for an RAF fighter-interceptor. The aircraft was to be the answer to the new threat of high altitude long-range Russian atom bombers. The new aircraft was also intended to wrest back the lead in jet fighter technology from the Americans, who were then dominating the market with the F-86 Sabre. The aircraft selected was the Hawker Hunter, which would eventually prove itself to be one of Britain's most successful post-war fighters. Almost 2000 Hunters would be built and supplied to air forces around the world, and they would prove to be equally effective in interception or ground attack roles.
Featuring an exclusive interview with Hawker's chief test pilot at the time, Bill Bedford, 'The Hawker Hunter' provides a detailed profile of the capabilities of the aircraft and is packed with the best footage available.
