HAWKER TYPHOON Mk1B

Although plagued with production problems, when introduced in 1941, the Typhoon was the only RAF fornt-line fighter capable of keeping up with the new Focke-Wulf FW190. Affectionately known by many as the “Tiffy”, once refined and improved, the big Hawker became a formidable weapon used mainly for ground-attack and tank-busting duties. A major contributor to the success of the D-Day landings and many successful long-range ground attack missions to follow, the Hawker Typhoon rightfully earns its place in aviation history alongside its illustrious stable mate, the Hawker Hurricane.

This model depicts the Mk1 B version with bubble canopy. It comes with selectable rockets, bombs and long-range tanks and includes a large array of special animations and fully functional, highly accurate virtual cockpit.
