Sydney Camm's design team set itself to improve the plane’s performance and armament effectiveness. On June 11, 1940, the prototype of the Mk II version was flown, equipped with a Rolls-Royce Merlin XX engine with a two-stage compressor. With this engine, the Hurricane reached 342 mph (550 km\/h). The first production Hurricane Mk IIA went into action in September 1940.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe second stage of modernisation was to improve firepower by increasing the number of machine guns to twelve, resulting in the appearance of the Mk IIB version. At the same time, work was carried out on adapting the wing to the installation of 20mm Hispano-Suiza HS.404 cannons. Cannon-armed version, marked Mk IIC, appeared in units (242, 3 and 257 Squadrons RAF) in March 1941 and was produced without major changes until July 1944. A total of 4,711 Mk IIC machines were produced, serving on almost all fronts during the Second World War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe aircraft, designed as an interceptor, was adapted over time to the role of an intruder, a night fighter (a version equipped with radar was also created), a carrier-based fighter, an attack aircraft and a light bomber. He lasted the longest in the first-line units in the latter role. The Mk IIC version also became the starting point for the Mk IID anti-tank version, equipped with two 40mm Vickers S cannons and the Mk IV - a specialised assault version that could carry bombs or rockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA tropicalised version was used outside the European theatre of operations, equipped with a distinctive dust filter. The pilots of the Polish Air Force met the Hurricane Mk IIC as early as in the autumn of 1941 during exchange postings in the No. 87 Squadron. In 1943, single examples were sent to the No. 318 Fighter-Reconnaissance Squadron, and in April 1944, the entire Polish No. 309 Squadron was equipped with this type and operated from airfields in Scotland on patrol duty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduct safety information\u003cbr\u003e\nManufacturer information\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arma Hobby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51341706592523,"sku":"40004","price":43.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/1809\/4091\/files\/arma-hobby-40004-hawker-hurricane-mk-iic-1160787074.jpg?v=1749036368"},{"product_id":"arma-hobby-40009-1-48-hawker-sea-hurricane-mk-iic-x","title":"Hawker Sea Hurricane Mk IIc \/ X","description":"\u003cp\u003eSea Hurricane Mk II c - plastic kit 1\/48 scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNew Arma Hobby 2023 tools + 3D print conversion - plug and play replacement parts without the need to cut plastic parts.\u003cbr\u003e\nSea Hurricane IIc Kit includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eArma Hobby Hurricane Mk.II plastic sprues\u003cbr\u003e\n    Decal with 3 marking and colours options\u003cbr\u003e\n    Painting masks for the canopy and wheels (kabuki paper)\u003cbr\u003e\n    3D printed set with arrestor hook section, pilot's seat with harness, 20mm gun barrels and exhaust manifold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMarking and Paiting options:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eSea Hurricane Mk IIc - 835 Squadron, HMS Nairana, pilot Sub Lt.

It contributed significantly to the ultimate victory of the R.A.F. during the Battle of Britain, but over the course of the war it was progressively superseded in its front-line fighter role by the much more modern Spitfire. However, the Hurricane’s role was gradually changed by the provision of awfully specific versions and armaments. The Hurricane Mk. IIC for example was equipped with 4 powerful 20 mm Hispano-Suiza cannons mounted in the wings with nearly 400 rounds of ammunition. The adoption of 20 mm cannons, instead of the traditional 7.7 mm machine guns, made the Hurricane extremely effective in ground attack and close support missions. Additionally, the Hurricane Mk.

RAF Hurricanes accounted for more enemy aircraft kills than all other defenses combined, including all aircraft and ground defenses. Later in the war, the Hurricane served admirably in North Africa, Burma, Malta, and nearly every other theater in which the RAF participated. The Hurricane underwent many modifications during its life, resulting in many major variants, including the Mk IA, with interchangeable wings housing eight 7.7mm (0.303in) guns;the Mk IIC, with a Merlin XX engine; the Mk IID, a tankbuster with two 40mm anti-tank guns plus two 7.7mm guns.
