This is just me speculating, but - The one thing that would would be notable is "anger issues". That kind of denotes rages. A rage is different from a tantrum. Although it can appear as just a really bad tantrum, the reasons for it are different. It sounds like control issues. In my daughter, she rages whenever she feels out of control (which is quite often). Being asked to do something can lead to her feeling out of control. The anger that comes out of her during a rage is unbelievable. You may need to be trained in how to restrain her so she doesn't hurt herself or you (and believe me, its quite difficult to restrain a raging child).
Lucy had a good suggestion - see if anyone has videotaped one. That should tell you alot.
Also, it sounds like the foster parents weren't good, therefore, the tantrums could be simply from their lack of abilities. Get more details.
Good luck.
