    Hawker Hurricane IIc Trop - First Look - TFS 5.0

    First pictures of the Team Fusion Simulations 5.0 Hawker Hurricane IIc Trop

    Revised damage modelling still underway, bombers will be tougher in TF 5.0 than 4.5.

    Those 4 Hispano's pack a punch!

    All images WIP.



    Cheers,

    Pattle

    Nice! That will be an awesome ground attacker. See us already on low level straffing missions with 2 500lb bombs and those cannons. Like a nimble cousin to the mighty Beau

    Please, please, please all you mission builders:
    Give us many, many ground targets to blow up with Beaus and fighter bombers!

    cant wait to see how TFS do the 4x 20mm hispano damage modelling, Also how much worse she handles compared to a normal hurricane.

    The aircraft is the same with the minor exception of the nose being lengthened by 3 inches to allow the two speed supercharged Merlin XX. But that was counterbalanced by addition of weight in the tail to keep the CoG correct.

    There is more weight with the four Hispanos instead of the eight .303's, as well as the heavier ammo.

    And there is more drag on the airframe with the protruding guns.

    So this means the aircraft turns worse... but not worse than a 109.

    Overall, the Hurricane II's at +12 boost had slightly worse low altitude performance when compared to a +12 boost Hurri I.... but quite a bit better high alt performance.

    The best performing Hurri II was the IIA, with the same gunset as the Hurri I... it was not much heavier. It is arguably a better aircraft than the standard 109E's at high altitude.

    Later models got quite a bit heavier, with the IID being the heaviest with the huge 40mm AT cannon.

    1942 versions were upped to an allowable +16 boost, which helped low alt performance.

    Tropical versions had less power due to the permanent airflow restriction of the Vokes air filter... the filter could not be moved out of place with a lever or switch to allow free airflow like the German/Italian/American aircraft. The Vokes fairing also added quite a bit of drag which slowed the aircraft.

    The four Hispanos do the expected amount of damage... so similar to a Beaufighter, except the Beaufighter is not so sensitive to convergence because its weapons are in the nose instead of the wing.

    But a Hurricane IIC which has a free run at a bomber will do some nasty damage.

    Yes, B/C models could carry bombs.
