Hawker Hurricane
Mk IIB (Replica)

The Hurricane Mk II was an improvement over the Hurricane Mk I. It had a Merlin XX engine and a new two-speed supercharger that could have its impeller speed changed by the pilot depending on the outside air pressure. The Hurricane Mk IIB has 12 .303 Browning machine guns - four per wing in the original gun-bays and two more in new gun-bays outboard of the landing lights.
