Like the original, this Sea Hurricane is a modified Hurricane Mk I with the addition of folding wings, tail hook, etc. It has an effective carrier launch and landing system that makes operating from correctly scaled carriers like the Ark Royal or Zuikaku practical and fun.More interestingly the aircraft can be launched from a catapult ramp (similar to a V1 launch ramp) on a merchant ship. During WWII the Admiralty called such vessels, CAM ships, for Catapult Aircraft Merchantmen. These ships were designed to follow the merchant convoys from England to the United States, putting them in the path of German aircraft so their fighters could intercept before the enemy could attack.
In the download there are comprehensive guides on how to operate the Sea Hurricane from the CAM ship, Ark Royal or Zuikaku and eight training missions. (CAM ship is included in the Sea Hurricane zip file)
Special thanks to Bryan Russell for his Hurricane Mk I on which the Sea Hurricane is based and AUI for his outstanding merchant ship.
