The Hawker Typhoon (Tiffy in RAF slang) is a British single-seat fighter-bomber, produced by Hawker Aircraft. It was intended to be a medium–high altitude interceptor, as a replacement for the Hawker Hurricane but several design problems were encountered and it never completely satisfied this requirement. The Typhoon became established in roles such as night-time intruder and long-range fighter.[5] From late 1942 the Typhoon was equipped with bombs and from late 1943 RP-3 rockets were added to its armoury. With those weapons and its four 20mm Hispano autocannons, the Typhoon became one of the Second World War's most successful ground-attack aircraft

@SimplyPlain it’s quite easy to build them with minimal parts actually. I uploaded an unlisted build of mine which uses them and some scaled down wings. You can scavenge those parts if you’d like or just see how to make it in a simple way. They aren’t perfect, hence why I haven’t uploaded it but they’re decent enough. Would you like me to tag you in it?
@Mustang51 You're absolutely right... the planes could look a lot nicer with some more detail. Building them would be easy enough, but they won't run on my old iPad. Will give it a try sometime -but anything with 150+ parts is a bit of a challenge for the antique tablet.
This is really nice! My pet panzer IV saw this and ran for cover! The one thing I would make different is to either expose the control surfaces or make custom moveable ones. Fantastic job nonetheless!
An airplane can reproduce and yet it has a hell of a mouth. Very nice job . Congratulations .
smoother than my life
looks great!
