About the original:

The Hawker Hurricane Mk IIb was a British single-seat fighter used in World War II. It was built by Hawker Aircraft and was a further development of the Hurricane Mk I. The Hurricane Mk IIb was produced from 1941 and was equipped with a Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, which gave it a speed of up to 607 km/h.

The aircraft was equipped with various weapons, including machine guns and cannons. It was mainly used as a fighter, but could also be used as a bomber. The Hurricane Mk IIb was produced in large quantities and was one of the main aircraft used by the Royal Air Force (RAF) during World War II. It also played an important role in the defense of Britain during the Battle of Britain.

In total, more than 14,000 Hurricane Mk IIb were produced. It was also used by other air forces, including the Soviet Union Air Force. After the war, the Hurricane Mk IIb was used by many air forces around the world for some time before being replaced by more modern aircraft.
