We all have our favourites I guess. Since there are so many Spitfire and Bf109 variants I hope Team Daidalos will revisit the Hawker Hurricane. It carried yes, 500 lb bombs, rocket projectiles, external fuel and don't forget the 40mm Vickers guns. These were belt fed with 15 rounds. The Stuka and Sturmovik are modelled with similar weapons, so why not the good old RAF workhorse, the Hurricane. The addiition of the correctly shaped arrestor hook would also produce the Sea Hurricane which operated from HMS Argus and also I think ARK ROYAL in the Med. This coding is already in the game, and would only have to be 'linked' to the hurricane. Oh, and the Hurricane also carried assymetric stores, although not popular with pilots doing this. I have a photo in a book showing one in North Africa with a 40mm gun under the starboard wing and an external fuel tank under the port wing. Considering that it was also used in the Far East, I think this aircraft has been overlooked a bit in the game.
