The Hurricane Mk I played a key role during the early stages of the Second World War, helping secure vital maritime routes for the British Royal Navy. Its introduction to aircraft carriers, modified merchant ships, and training units provided a temporary solution to the FAA's need for effective fighter aircraft.
The Sea Hurricane Mk Ia, or "Hurricat," was converted from ex-RAF Hurricane Mk I aircraft with naval modifications, including catapult spools and a naval radio. These modified planes were launched from Fighter Catapult Ships and participated in convoy defence missions.
This 1:72 scale model kit recreates the Hurricane Mk I in navy colours, featuring plastic parts for easy assembly. It includes Techmod decals with 3 marking options and masks for creating custom templates from masking tape.
