The Hawker Typhoon was pressed early into service during the war because it was the only aircraft at the time that could not only keep up with the new Fockle Wulf 190, but it could also catch it,From the Normandy landings into a three month period 666 Pilots ,56% of all Typhoon pilots lost their lives in action over France ,Holland,and Germany flying dangerous low level sorties,tank busting ,attacking goods trains and military targets,at that low level the flak would have been murderous,Typhoon pilots were mostly volunteres from other squadrons flying spits and hurricanes, There is no memorial to these brave men and women who flew and paid the untimate sacrafice, many of us think there should be.,the supreme commander in chief Dwight D Eisenhower, said the chief credit in smashing the enemy sprearhead must go to the rocket firing Typhoon of the second tactical air force, the result of the strafing was that the enemy attack was effectivley brought to a halt,and a threat was turned into a great victory. There will soon be a Typhoon taking to the skys again from the Typhoon preservation group, then may these brave men and womens endevors never be unsung and Hawker Typhoon MK1B , RB396 will be their flying memorial ,my thanks go out to them all. warbirdsnews.co... hawkertyphoon....
Always a pleasure to see the Typhoon hard at work. The men who flew her deserve much praise for their guts and tenacity. Well done!!
Thanks for no commentary!
My late father in law told me of a time in France when he saw a typhoon blow the turret off a tiger tank, ha said there were ball bearings running down the street.
i can bielive that,thats why after normandy all tanks stayed camoflaged and stayed in the hedgerows, because they new if they were spotted by a typhoon they were toast.
@@skidzholeshot1316 Well historically they were in danger but not toast. Post war assessments show that the accuracy of rocket strikes was under 17% success ratio. So dangerous for the tank, but not a death sentence when spotted by a single plane.
One of my favourite planes of the war
mine too jake,what those pilots put themselves through was astounding.
@@skidzholeshot1316 they showed true bravery in the face of death that’s why they shall always be remembered as the greatest generation
@@jacknicholls9679 once that Typoon is restored it will be their flying memorial,i so cant wait to see it take to the air.
@@jacknicholls9679 it always amazes me how through the centuries the most civilised countries ,nations,become the most fearsome and adamant warriors.in the face of adversity.
One of my favourite planes as well.
Thank You!
thank you also
your supporter thank u and God Bless you
Your maneuvering could be much better if you use rudder. You like to climb and bank over to begin your runs, throw in rudder to bring your nose around. Happy hunting!!!
Wondering if damaging the tracks ahead of the train would derail the lot; have not seen that damage modeling yet!!
ive tried it and the train goes through but a few carriges will come off, it shows in this vid ua-cam.com/video/GpxWq1Iq7MM/v-deo.html
Beautiful restoration. Thank you.
Brian keep it up and pour out over Joe Martin weapons during under the rings have good trip until wheels down
Have fun starting that awesome thing try the Tempest same plain with the Brit gay thing removed.
What a classy plane innit?
i agree its all power.
This looks like the Hawker Typhoon. Sure u got the right plane here?
this is the Hawker Typhoon???i get it you were on the drink last night lol
2:45 ???
if your aircraft is not staying over the tanks they re-set and start from the tree line again mad i know,i was going to put a question mark on screen at this bit saying stealth mode lol
Once again a Brit aircraft with munitions from the USA. If I'm not mistaken those are sidewinders under it's wings.
these are ww2 british RP3 ungiuded 60lb warhead rockets,not modern sidewinders at $400.000 a time
You are in fact mistaken.
nice flying poor landing, need to flare - roll out smoothly & break smoother - overreacted with rudder as well! But it's not easy even if you know how 2 ;)
i9 have thrustmaster t1600 with throttle and paddle rudder donr have foot rudders yet, brit planes braking and using rudder at same time is difficult on this set up,ill get it one day,thanks.
@@skidzholeshot1316 ah yes same with Ussr Yak's but they are easy to land imo... I have got dedicated left/right break button & when breaking you need to use less rudder that's how i do it... ;)
@@romaniachin6751 YES I HAVE 2 DEDICATED BRAKE BUTTONS ALSO WITH THE RUDDER PADDLE ABOVE THEM ON THE THROTTLE QUADRANT,OOPS CAPS,ill give your idea a go,thanks,as /and i have all collector russian planes.
@@skidzholeshot1316 Nice i wish i had more time to fly... Work work work... :(
Coming back in with unused ammunition?
first trip next one ill take a squadron,and not forget ive still got rockets on .
I was expecting to see a Soviet WW2 aircraft. Lol.
this is battle of boddenplatte in europe campain,part of the il2 series.
What brave women do you mean? There were no female combat pilots to my knowledge. Do you mean the women who ferried plans from factories to front line bases?
yes the ATA the women who ferried all kinds of aircraft ,many of them died ferrying Typhoons.and they certainly were brave, ferrying lancasters Typhoons etc ,without evr flying one before all they had was the flight manuel to look at and off they went.
Poor evasion tactics.
how do you tactically avoid flack;? normally if i dont kill the aa on a train,then i expect to take hits,no matter how i evade,even grass cutting ,they are at eye lvl with you,only if there are lots of trees do we get away without a heavy damage,ive tried many ways,and ill keep trying.
Nice video, but there is no such thing as an iL2 Sturmovik Typhoon.
do you mean its a hawker typhoon? or that their isnt a typhoon in game?, in battle of boddenplatte and the new map normandy is part of the il2 stumovik series.
@@skidzholeshot1316 the way it was written, it seemed to imply that there was an aircraft called the iL2 Sturmovik Typhoon.
