The ones marked UNK are unknown to me and I've used an appropriate serial number that I know a 43 squadron Hurricane used during the Battle of Britain. The 3 serial numbers marked RAF are sourced from RAF combat reports and saw the combat which I believe the painting you posted is based on the 16th August 1940. However, the 3 serial numbers are not authentic to the aircraft letter I'm afraid but I thought it'd be nice to include them.

FT-K N2621 RAF P/O. Woods-Scawen
FT-L P3202 RAF P/O. Gray
FT-M P3220 RAF P/O. Lane
FT-N V7206 UNK
FT-O P3781 FC
FT-Q V7366 FC
FT-R L1727 FC
FT-S P3903 UNK
FT-T L1742 UNK
FT-U P3784 FC
FT-X P3466 FC

Hope this helps.
WOW!!!!
Thanks buddy I will add these ASAP
Best Regards
Keith
