About the Item

A 1950’s scale model of a Royal Air Force Hawker Hunter XF 418. 1/24 scale. In the livery of the RAF Black Arrows Base marked: HUNTER .F.Mk.6 (underside: 52/NIV/128←) Hawker Hunter XF 418 F6A: Built by Armstrong Whitworth at Baginton, XF418 served with the DFLS, 229 OCU, and the TWU and retired to RAF Laarbruch for BDRT duties in 1984. RAF Wildenrath moved it to their base for display in Blue Diamonds colours. On the closure of Wildenrath, the aircraft was acquired in 1999 by the Flugausstellung P. Junior Museum, Hermeskeil, Germany. The Hawker Hunter is a single seat 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. It was designed to take advantage of the newly developed Rolls-Royce Avon turbojet engine and the swept wing. On 7 September 1953, the modified first prototype broke the world air speed record for aircraft, achieving a speed of 727.63 mph.
