Airfix A02082A Hawker Hurricane MkI 1:72 Scale Military Aircraft Series 2 Model Kit
A total of 1,715 Hurricanes flew with Fighter Command during the period of the Battle, far in excess of all other British fighters combined. The Hurricane was a robust, manoeuvrable aircraft capable of sustaining fearsome combat damage before write-off; and unlike the Spitfire, it was a wholly operational, go-anywhere do-anything fighter by July 1940. It is estimated that its pilots were credited with four-fifths of all enemy aircraft destroyed in the period July-October 1940. Paint colors needed: Matt Trainer Yellow, Matt Dark Earth, Matt Black, Matt Scarlett, Metallic Gunmetal, Matt Beige Green, and Satin Dark Green.
