Album de 23 walk-around photos of the hunter "Hawker Sea Fury"

Photo Gallery on a Hawker Sea Fury, The Sea Fury était un chasseur britannique développé pour la Royal Navy par le constructeur Hawker-Siddeley durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il fut le dernier appareil à hélice de la Royal Navy, l’un des plus rapides monomoteurs à pistons jamais construit, et le dernier chasseur à hélice à abattre un avion à réaction. Le Hawker Fury was the successor to the Hawker Typhoon and the Hawker Tempest. The Fury was designed in 1942 by the famous Sidney Camm in response to a royal Air Force tender to replace the Tempest II. Designed as a "lighter Tempest," his predecessor used a semi-elliptic wing riveted in the centre of the fuselage. The fuselage itself was similar to that of the Tempest, but completely monohull and with an elevated cockpit to provide better visibility to the pilot.

The CASA 2.111 was a Spanish-made version of the famous German bomber Heinkel 111. Durant la guerre d’Espagne (1937), les nationalistes de Franco furent équipés en matériel militaire par les Allemands et les Italiens. Parmi ces livraisons, des bombardiers Heinkel 111 D, motorisés par des Junkers Jumo 211, furent prêtés aux troupes nationalistes. Après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la construction sous licence commença, sous le nom de CASA 2.111 (111 étant la référence allemande de cet appareil). La principale différence était sa motorisation: en effet le Casa 2.111 était motorisé par des moteurs Rolls-Royce Merlin 500 — tout comme le Hispano Aviación 1112: en 1953, l’Espagne a acheté un certain nombre de ces moteurs aux Britanniques. C’est ce même moteur qui équipait également les Hurricanes et les Spitfires pendant la guerre. CASA 2.111 de l’armée de l’air espagnole. La version 2.111a était motorisé avec des moteurs Junkers Jumo 211 B2; les modèles suivants furent motorisés avec des moteurs Rolls-Royce Merlin 500 de 1600 cv.
