Nuotraukų galerija "Hawker Typhoon" , "Hawker Typhoon" buvo vienvietis britų naikintuvas, kurį nuo 1941 m. gamino "Hawker Aircraft" kompanija. Ketindamas pakeisti "Hawker" uraganą kaip perėmėją, jis iš pradžių patyrė našumo problemų ir buvo patobulintas, kad taptų vienu geriausių Antrojo pasaulinio karo kovotojų-sprogdintojų.

2007 "Hawker Typhoon" was a British single-seat fighter-bomber developed by Hawker Aircraft. Initially intended as a replacement for the Hawker Hurricane, its design shortcomings at high altitude led it to excel as a low-level interceptor and one of the most successful antžeminiai orlaiviai of World War II.
It was famously used in the Second Tactical Air Force for close air support during and after the 1944 Normandy landings, earning a reputation as a formidable destroyer of tanks and motorized transport.

Development and Service History
- Initial Role: The Typhoon was designed to be a fast, high-altitude interceptor, but its thick wings caused compressibility problems that restricted its performance at high altitudes.
- Engine Issues: The powerful Napier Sabre engine was initially plagued with reliability issues, including carbon monoxide seepage into the cockpit and structural failures at the tail, which required extensive redesigns and reinforcements.
- New Role: After the appearance of the German Focke-Wulf Fw 190, the Typhoon’s high speed at low altitude made it the only RAF fighter capable of catching the Fw 190 in “tip-and-run” coastal raids, securing its place as a low-level interceptor.
- The “Tiffie” as a ‘Tank Buster’: From late 1943, when equipped with RP-3 rockets, the Typhoon became a devastatingly effective ground-attack platform, specializing in “Cab Rank” close air support missions over Europe.
- Variant (IA vs IB): The early Typhoon Mk IA was armed with twelve 0.303 in machine guns, but the most common production model, the Typhoon Mk IB, standardized on four powerful 20 mm Hispano cannons.
Palikimas
While the Typhoon’s initial role was a failure, its eventual success as a potent naikintuvas-bombonešis made it indispensable to the Allied ground forces in the European theater. The design groundwork for the Typhoon was later refined into the superior high-altitude fighter, the Vanagas Tempestas.
