Yes and 111 was the bigger Spey-engined result of the all-nighter, but still with a Hunting type number.
What might be worth remembering was the DH121 was originally the result of an ad hoc grouping based on de Havilland and called Airco which included Hunting and another I can't remember today. Anyway Hunting and its staff became part of BAC and effectively designed the first BAC aeroplane.
