The Hunter F.11 was also missing in the list but this is more comprehensible as it was an unbuilt project, the Hawker team knowing that asymmetry had poor success among deciders: :-\

Thanks!

Apart of lateral twins, there were longitudinal twins also (tandem): <_<

Of course, more famous was the 2-seat Twin-Hunter, almost "normal" a plane: <_<
Not exactly "normal" but actually whif was the Twin-Hunter toon (here in flight in the blue sky): ;)

Yeah! 4 (AC) Squadron!  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

The Twin-Hunter key ring was featuring the Swiss one, not RAF, sorry: :-\

This Twin-Hunter was not a dirty flying machine, oily, but a precious piece of jewelry, golden: ;)

The same, while this (Twin-Hunter) necklace is silver not gold: ;)

There was a 3-seat Twin-Hunter version, for some reason, probably secret...

Another version of the 3-seat twin was even more asymmetric: <_<

It seems that, according to a Hunter foundation (of veterans?) the best Hawker symbol is a Twin-Hunter!: <_<

Hawker is a famous jewelry, producing different versions of Twin-Hunter, here below: dark cufflinks <_<

It seems Hawker (the famous jewelry) also made a Twin-Hunter tie-clip: <_<

Back to airports and airplanes as flying machines...
This is the photographic proof that some Twin-Hunters were tailless, without fins, without tailplanes, yes! <_<
