Operation Pig Bristle was an unusual transport task conducted by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) in May 1946. The operation was ordered by the Australian Government in response to a national shortage of paint brushes, which was hindering house-building efforts. No. 38 Squadron of the RAAF was given the task of flying 25 tonnes of pig bristles from Chongqing in China to Hong Kong, from where the bristles were shipped to Australia. The operation took place during the Chinese Civil War, with Chongqing cut off and at risk of capture by Communist forces. The squadron completed this task over a two-week period without loss.

  • Operasi Pig Bristle adalah operasi pengiriman tidak lazim yang dilakukan oleh Angkatan Udara Kerajaan Australia (RAAF) pada bulan Mei 1946. Pemerintah Australia mencanangkan operasi ini untuk mengatasi kelangkaan kuas cat yang menghambat program perumahan umum. RAAF ditugaskan menerbangkan 25 ton rambut kejur babi dari Chongqing di Tiongkok ke Hong Kong, kemudian mengirimnya lewat kapal ke Australia. Operasi ini dilakukan di tengah Perang Saudara Tiongkok. Waktu itu, Chongqing terputus dari dunia luar dan terancam diduduki tentara Komunis. Operasi ini diselesaikan dalam dua pekan tanpa kerugian maupun korban. (in)
