Not a Hunter but I've just looked this manufacturer up and was astonished at the number and types of aircraft they made.

Not a Hawker.

Two clues: Another picture and keep in mind I've taken the colour out for what will eventually be an obvious reason.

Good guess but the colour wasn't red.

Clue: This aircraft from inception/building to retirement was less than ten years.

Not the Vampire.

Clue: This aircraft was fitted with one of the first fully powered control systems, hydraulically driven with electrical trim tab.

Well I've searched through both volumes of Argus's "Post War Jets" as well as their hardback "British Experimental Jet Aircraft" with no luck. Was it from DeHavilland?
