History:
The Hawker Hurricane Mk I “Navy Colours” is a rare wartime adaptation, featuring a naval period paint scheme used by RAF Fleet Air Arm units in the early 1940s. Though not widely deployed at sea, these Hurricanes supported coastal defence and convoy protection duties. Robust, reliable, and easy to maintain, the Hurricane’s naval livery honors its lesser-known maritime role during WWII.
