Hawker-Siddeley Hunter T7A
The T7A was a dual-control training version of the single-seat Hawker-Siddeley Hunter. The first prototype Hunter trainer flew in July 1955, and featured side-by-side seating for the student pilot and instructor.
The Hunter T7 entered service in August 1958 and served until the disbandment on 31 March 1994. Most Hunter squadrons had at least one example on strength for conversion and continuation training, in addition to its service with training and test flying units. Six Hunter T7s were converted to the Mk 7A standard to serve with No. 237 OCU at RAF Lossiemouth as a dual control conversion trainer for Hawker Siddeley Buccaneer pilots, with Buccaneer instrumentation in the cockpit.
