Bravo Delta 1/28 172 Hawker Fury 1 RAF Tangmere 1936-7 Wooden Model

A most attractive aircraft, the Hawker Fury had a clean, streamlined shape for a bi-plane, resulting in the ability to exceed 200 mph top speed - the first RAF fighter to do so. Furies remained in front line service until 1939 when Hurricanes took over their roles and many were relegated to a training role. Three squadrons of Fury II's were used by the South African Air Force in East Africa in the early stages of WW2 and Yugoslav Furies were in combat in 1941.
