Sea Hurricane mk. 2C
« on: July 17, 2008, 11:46:48 AM »
I think this would be a cool additon to our CV plane arsenal, the FAAs version of the Hurri 2c with the 4 hispano set up. Only real difference from the RAF version was an arrestor hook and catapult spools ( they didn't have folding wings lol)

Needed the Sea Hurri for a long time, should be an easy adaptation of the Hurri we have.

just enable hurri2c of the cv. Not that I approve hurri 2c is one of the most easy mode planes out there.

         OK if its too easy of a flavor( like Kamikaze's vs Jim Beam at the bar right  :rock ) add the Sea Hurri mk. 1.  Either way this being the FAAs 1st true modern monoplane fighter/ interceptor Sea Hurri deserves its place in the halls of AH2 :)

Seafire is NOT RAF, it's F.A.A. or FLEET AIR ARM - ROYAL NAVY.

Good way to start a fight in certain circles my friend.   ;)

The majority of Hurricane IIs fitted for carrier operations had 8x .303 (yes, hurr2s with .303s), if I recall. We've had similar discussions in the past and some folks have listed some production numbers and history of the plane type. Hopefully the forum hasn't eaten them with the reset a little while ago.

Sweet, I'd like a Hurri that doesnt stall after you push your nose down like the Hurri 1. Or even the Hurricane Mk 2B!  :D

The amount of dweebery in the use of this plane would be horrendous. No one would fly F6Fs or corsairs anymore.

Course they would. They are faster and are better bomb trucks.
