+ Make Hawker Hurricane great again!!!
Seriously, here I support kicking a Request for a tiny but heavy historical Loadout option.
It's such small things that make out differences and I stumbled across this when researching the ugly Filter Hurries.
Here are two pictures I could find depicting 78.IAP Ace Snr. Ltn. Alexey Dizheskiy with this heavy Prank.
As I understood the topic, the Northern Fleet and VVS Hurries had trouble coming along the Jerries and their superior
armament. Hence a variety of Loadouts were tested to pack more punch. This undoubtly being enough to shredd
a bit riveted Duraluminium and leave a mark. Although the Russians rarely used the .303s.
It's basicly the Mk./IIB mod (Default) + 4 outer Wing .303 Brownings
2xShvaK 20mm Cannons
2xUBk 12,7mm MGs
4x.303 cal. Browning MGs

For the moment that's all regarding references, the Author of the Osprey Title will publish a more comprehensive Title
showcasing VVS Hurries, better then this Pamphlet, let's hope he get's it done.

outer Wing .303 Brownings
I'll love it! ;)
-
Segfej,
thanks for your continued interest in Hurricane: I'm one of its lovers too! ;)
About outer .303's, I think that if they added them (like also did British), they should have had some effect. In game I was often surprised by their effectiveness: they don't destroy like cannons, but often are better in setting ablaze the enemy aircraft or kill its pilot.
-
Yes! Hurricane is a classic WW2 plane, worth all versions!
-
She's ready to take the skies... soon
Have a nice day
Tobias
-
WUNDERBAR! ;D
-
Ooooooo, I like! ;D
Great to see it!
-
There she is Combat girl aka heavy VVS Hurrie for your pleasure.
Happy flying
Tobias

Thanks
-
She's 100% "KICK ASS" :P
-
Segfej,
thank you so much for this new breed of Hurricanes! I think I'll suit a campaign for them!
Tested successfully in 4.09 + UP2.01.
There's an issue with cannon shell casing ejection, which happens outboard in respect of the barrel, whilst relevant slot looks to be inboard. I think it's inherited from stock Hurri Mod, which retained this issue until now, in v4.13.1.
Thanks also for skins, so warlike; it is unclear from your credits who made them, I fear you mixed and matched the Hurri Filter ones.
Gratefully yours,
Greybeard

Version 2 comes with Skylla's Fix for the Shells, Credits reworked too,
Thanks for the reminder Greybeard ;)
Kind Regards
Tobias

Version 2 comes with Skylla's Fix for the Shells
Great!
An huge thanks to you, Skylla and all skinmakers involved!
Also version 2 with its corrected shell casing ejection works perfectly in my 4.09+UP2.01 installation.
Cheers,
GB

Thanks Epervier!
You deserve a Russian kiss! :P

Real thing seems more complicated, though, looking at following topic:
http://sovietwarplanes.com/board/index.php?topic=881.0 (http://sovietwarplanes.com/board/index.php?topic=881.0)
being weapons layout asymmetrical; if this is true, weapons should lie according to this drawing:

Whoever had designed this plan had abused the vodka? o_O
Everyone is free to change or not the position of this rocket! :-|

Ok you win! I delete my post! :D

Ok you win!
Oh! I wouldn't "win" - just to assess the truth. :-X
I delete my post! :D
Noblesse oblige! ;)
Cheers, mate!

Interesting. Since it's a field modification, I wonder if it's asymmetrical due to how the cannon above may be positioned inside the wing, or due to how the Ammo is fed or ejected??
-
I fear it is unknown.
In the above link, author guesses about ammo feeds ("I presume this is due to allowing for the ammo feeds of UB guns?").
In my personal experience, any "odd" layout is motivated by giving room to something; I guess Hurricane left wing was in some way different from right one, causing need for those asymmetries. Maybe some Hurricane connoisseur could answer properly.
-
A new recent Version of the old is up, this is from my Vault in the BAT 4.2 Patch 02.
Have no clue if it's the same or altered, best use together with Modified Russian Filter Mod.
Just in case, this is an old Mod, have no clue.
Enjoy
Tobias
PS. just testing you read up properly, Cheers
