Présentation de cet avion de combat britannique qui fut le premier à dépasser les 300 miles à l'heure. Ce modèle est utilisé sur tous les fronts et son palmarès à la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale est composé de nombreuses victoires. ©Electre 2024
Although the first British combat plane to fly faster than 300 mph, produced almost to the end of World War II and used on every front, the Hawker Hurricane hasn't always been recognised for what it was worth because although its career was brilliant it was to a great extent eclipsed by that of the true star, the Supermarine Spitfire. The real winner of the Battle of Britain however was the Hurricane, and by far, since in the summer of 1940 two thirds of RAF Fighter Command's squadrons were equipped with Hurricanes. Even better, at the end of the war, the Hurricane had chalked up a very impressive tally, since more than half of all British kills, all theatres of operations included, were scored by the different versions of the Hurricanes.
