The Hawker Hunter T.Mark 67 was the designation given to five two-seat trainers ordered by Kuwait in the late 1960s as a stop-gap measure before the delivery of the McDonnell-Douglas A-4KU Skyhawk.
The first two trainers were ordered in 1963 and delivered in 1965. The single-seat Mark 57 was delivered in the following year, and then in 1967 Kuwait ordered three more trainers which arrived in May 1969. All five of the trainers were powered by the large Avon 200 series engine, making them similar to the second two-seat prototype rather than the RAF's T.7, which used the smaller 100 series engines.
