Re: Hurricane IIB in India
Wrong variant, too. It's a Mk.IIc - look at the cartridge ejector slots.

Re: Hurricane IIB in India
Hi Graham.
I think it probably is the 12-gun Hurricane IIb. The outer 2x guns protrude forward of the wing (with matching 2x cartridge tubes below wing). The 4x guns in original position remain internal to wing - the openings in leading edge seem closed by non-standard (post-war?) metal-sheet, but the v-shaped array of cartridge chutes under the wing are there, plus an extra one for drop tank plumbing (perhaps?). Impressed with the temporary canopy cover/replacement. ...geoff
