If HTC perked the Hurri MkII C, the Spit-16 and the La-7 there would be an empty LW Arena......

The Hurricane is a war horse.  Reliable, powerful and hard hitting. 

Be thankful it isn't perked!

One decent hurri 2 c driver can make many vulchers whine.



I AM...AND I HAVE :rofl

also, a previous post mentioned it's punch.....i think the hispanos fire explosive rounds wheras the type 99's in the zekes don't. i've conserved ammo by firing only 2 at a time in the past in the hurri........

I disagree that LW would be empty. I think it would actually make it a better place.

                        I have a soft spot for the Hurri. I really should spend more time in it.

Hurri C's are great. As of late, it has been one of the most fun to fly. Here is how I've been getting kills in them lately....

1.) Overshoots....Overshoot kills are the best. It's hard to get a better feeling out of a kill than a guy that overshoots and pays for it.

2.) Flying just inside an enemy's radar ring and waiting for a fight. This helps insure that the cons come in at an altitude where you can fight them lower . Also, in most cases I have the alt advantage, which is essential for a hurri to catch anything. Fighting just insided the enemy's radar ring also creates opportunities for help and easier RTB's.

i used to fly the hurri2c exclusivly because of the turning ability, ya the cannons are nice but theres not enough of them,(if ive ever been on your 6 you know 360 some odd rounds arnt enough) :cry and the thing is so slow its an easy kill, i think the eny should be more like 12 or 15, because of the slowness of it, any decent stick can kill one unless of corse its got plenty of alt, even then it should be easy,
then again it really depends on who is at the stick.

You are confusing it with the Hurricane I, which has an ENY of 40. Hurricane II never had an Eny >30 as far as I know.


i think it did once have a high ENY, was 25 i think. a few GV kills gave you well over 20 perks each sortie :D

Bahh, plenty of ammo.  All you need do is have secondary fire button. This way you can fire one bank, then switch when empty.

I have all guns mapped this way. Take the spit for instance. I use the small cal weapons to "spook" them into turning. Then I nail em with the cannon.

Edit. And 1 hizooka is plenty, never mind 4.

i have a primary fire button which fires everything on the plane...and a secondary that only fires 2 at a time......on planes with cannon/machine guns, i have one mapped for guns only(to tickle them with) cannons only(to disassemble their plane with) and main trigger fires all(if i wanna end the fight quickly before he comes round and kicks my azzz)
 in the 2c, i only ever  fire 2 at a time unless i suspect it's someone that i REALLY need to finish quickly(like NB, lusche, redtop, pluto, etc..if i'm even lucky enough to gain their 6 to begin with).
