A ram air turbine movable between a stowed position and a deployed position is provided including a rotatable hub assembly. A hub face is arranged at a first end of the rotatable hub assembly. The hub face has a non-planar configuration such that a limited portion of a surface area of the hub face is arranged within a plane oriented perpendicular to a direction of travel of an airflow upstream from the hub face when the ram air turbine is in a deployed position.
