The Hunter was the standard RAF fighter during the 1950s. it quickly replaced the Meteor and Venom as it was superior in every way to the first generation jets. During the 1960s, the English Electric Lightning was successfully introduced and the Hunter transitioned into a fighter-bomber role and even aerial reconnaissance. Two-seat variants remained in use for training and secondary roles with the RAF and the Royal Navy until the early 1990s. The Hunter was so successful that almost 2,000 were produced and it saw service in 21 foreign air forces worldwide. Sixty years after its original introduction it was still in active service, being operated by the Lebanese Air Force until 2014.
