RHODESIAN HUNTER HOODIE

The Hunter FGA.9 was a modification of the Hunter F.6, with the biggest difference being an upgrade to the hydraulic control system allowing the aircraft to react better in dives and ground attack profiles. The FGA.9 was used extensively by RAF squadrons in West Germany, Aden and Bahrain and was also sold to Southern Rhodesia as the SRAF's main front line fighter and ground attack aircraft. After Rhodesia's unilateral declaration of independence in 1965, the now Rhodesian Air Force (RhAF) used the Hunter along with Vampires and Canberras during the standoff with British Colonial Forces in 1965-1966 and the Rhodesian Bush Wars of the 1970s
