1950's Dogfighters. Hawker Hunter vs MiG-17 Fresco??
Hi all, just another question for debate. Which do you think was the superior combat aircraft in the 1950's - Hawker Hunter or the MiG-17. If you were equipping an air force back then (political considerations aside) which would you have chosen and why?
Note: I was going to throw the F-100 Super Sabre into the mix but I feel it was probably a superior aircraft to both. What do you think?
Even outcome, almost matched birds if going with guns alone. With missiles, the Hunter would have an upper hand. In a horizontal fight, the MiG can torment the Hawker and vice versa if the Hunter engages the Fresco in a vertical fight.
But then you should remember that the MiG-17s have whacked a few F-105s in Vietnam.
