Series 2 aircraft - new scheme
One of the finest aeroplanes of WWII, the Hawker Tempest V could trace its design lineage back to the Hurricane fighters. The plane entered RAF service in early 1944. Although this was still a big aeroplane for a single engined fighter, its airframe was light and powered by the massively powerful 24 cylinder Napier Sabre engine, giving the new fighter spectacular performance.
Making its first flight on 2nd September 1942, it featured a newly designed laminar flow wing, much thinner than the wing used on its predecessor, allowing the new fighter to slip through the air at incredible speed.
