I bet it will come out soooooon,with 29.99usd price and half a year's waiting.

They were there, but of the maps we currently have, they were more prevalent at Moscow, at least according to this webpage, https://vvsairwar.com/2018/06/20/the-soviet-unions-hawker-hurricanes/

 

Either way the Hurricane would make a nice addition (even if it's just more easy cannon-fodder for the Luftwaffe :) ) as a collector plane that would fit both maps and fill in another missing piece of the jigsaw.

 

I would also like to see an earlier version of the P-40 than the E version we currently have and it would make a nice compliment to the Hurricane in the missing lend-lease department

Yes, actually in the early stages of "Fall Blau", some Hurricane II were involved: A whole IAD (roughly equivalent to a German Jagdgeschwader) plus later a fourth IAP (equivalent to Gruppe), but they were very quickly decimated. The Jagdwaffe claimed about 50 Hurris during June - August 1942 in the Southern sector.

 

On 1st of August only three combat-ready planes remained; all Hurris were destroyed when the Soviets left Kalach-on-Don.

I would be willing to pay for it. Is an important plane

I definitely think it should be on the short list for future stand-alone plane releases.

Surely a collector's plane that would make some cash ....

I'm a Hurribus lover back from CloD. I would definitively get it to show those posh tossers in their fancy Spits and Jerry a proper stiff upper lip. Tut tut, tally-ho and god save the king.

Once they've done the Mossie. 

 

Would be great to have a Hurricane & Typhoon as collectors, could do a whole war Hawker career....

You sir are an uncouth knave who does not appreciate the greatness that is that reliable, stable warhorse called Hawker Hurricane:D

If we could pre-pay then I think the old Hurri would receive quite a few donations

I would love to fly it, for personal reasons, but it would feel underpowered against all opposing aircraft, like the LaGG. Even in the Moscow map time frame.

Flying only the most powerful aircraft is for boring people. The Hurricane will be a fantastic turner filled to the brim with machine guns, I'm sure it'll catch a few people with their pants down

Like most of you guys, me too I would love to have a Hurricane in the game.

And I wouldn't mind paying more than usual for it.

 

Have a nice day.

A more important addition for Moscow would, and should be, the LaGG 3 series 4.

 

Just sayin'.

And I think it would be the stablest gun platform in the game too.

There are many here who would love to see the Hurricane, it was there, can be used on two of the maps and offers many options here as it did in real life.;)

 

Something from Jason in another Hurricane topic:

There was also mention in one of the interview sessions by Shamrock of some types he would like to add, the Hurricane and Mosquito if I remember correctly were two, obviously though everything as always here depends on resources.

 

Live in hope guys I say, we will soon run out of all the Uber planes then we will have to shut up shop or add something with a little character.:drinks:

Hurricane, pre-order price is two bottles of single-malt, sent to Jason's house.

I think...the Hurricane was offered up in a vote vs the P-40 - and the P-40 won. Correct me if I'm wrong about that...
