The Lansen looks like the love child of a T-33 and Hawker Hunter 😀

Essentially the Swedish Lansen was equivalent to the British Hunter.

Not really, they were contemporary, and both had avon engines and comparable performance. The Swedish Air Force had Hunters as well as Lansens. The Hunters were dedicated day fighters, lacking intercept radar. The Lansen came in strike and fighter verisions, both with radars for their respective tasks. In this sense, the fighter verision of the Lansen was an all weather day/night fighter and thus performed a task the Hunter was unable to do. The strike Lansens were expected to perform formidable strike missions at sea, at night, in wartime.
