History & Features:
The Hurricane Mk IID was the most specialised production variant, entering service in 1942 with twin 40 mm Vickers “S” cannons for ground‑attack roles. With approx. 300 built, this rugged variant earned nicknames like “Flying Can Opener” for its tank‑busting ordnance Its 3D‑printed cannon gondolas and exhausts capture that iconic silhouette, while five decal schemes cover theatres from North Africa to Burma.
