Hawker Hurricane II C – 1/24 Scale Model
Relive the Legendary British Fighter’s Battle of Britain Glory
Overview:
From the blueprints of the 1930s, the Hawker Hurricane swiftly became an emblem of British resilience and engineering. With a prodigious count of over 14,000 units manufactured by the end of 1944, its role in the pivotal Battle of Britain cannot be overstated. Dominating the skies in August 1940, the Hurricane claimed more enemy downings than all other defenses combined. Its battle laurels didn’t end there; it carved its name in the theaters of North Africa, Burma, Malta, and wherever the RAF raised its flag. The Hurricane’s adaptability led to the birth of significant variants like the gun-loaded Mk IA, the powerful Mk IIC with its Merlin XX engine, and the tank-busting Mk IID. From the RAF, it found home in air fleets of Egypt, Finland, India, Ireland, Persia, Turkey, and the USSR, etching a global legacy.

Understanding Scale
The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
