The Sea Fury was a fighter aircraft developed for the British Fleet Air Arm by Hawker during World War II. The last propeller-driven fighter to serve the Royal Navy, it was also the fastest production single piston-engined aircraft ever built.
Hawker Sea Fury FB.Mk 11
Designed to meet an Air Ministry/Admiralty requirement for a lightweight version of the Tempest, the Sea Fury was first flown on September 1st, 1944. It was an exceptional aircraft-tough in the attack role and one of the fastest single piston-engined aircraft ever built-but it was too late to see action in WWII. The Sea Fury carried a variety of munitions and delivery was extremely accurate; one Sea Fury shot down a MiG-15 during the Korean War. The last propeller-driven fighter to serve with the Royal Navy, the Sea Fury also served prominently with other nations including Australia, Germany, the Netherlands and Egypt.
Witty's 1:72 scale Hawker Sea Fury is constructed almost entirely of solid diecast metal. The models in this series feature distinct-yet-subtle panel lines and rivets, an uncommon feature in diecast metal (usually only seen on plastic models). The near solid fuselage has an all-metal empennage, a bubble canopy for easy viewing of the pilot figure and a sleek, five-bladed propeller and hub that blends seamlessly with the engine cowling. The solid metal wing has 20mm cannon ports on the leading edge, sturdy fixed landing gear and a variety of wing mounted drop tanks and ordnance loads. Releases in this series include the single-seat fighter-bomber and two-seat trainer variants.
