Littorio has just passed onto me news from ARMA Hobby of a Hawker Hurricane Mk.1 they plan to release in 1/72 scale
Arma Hobby presents the preview of Hawker Hurricane Mk I plastic models in 1/72 scale. This is the first replica of this aeroplane in many years, precisely in the version from the Battle of Britain. The characteristic feature is correctly reproduced “metal wings” armed with eight powerful machine guns .303 in calibre.
Model kit release is planned for the end of September 2018. Prepared are two different boxings:

●70018 - Hawker Hurricane Mk I Expert Set for intermediate/advanced modeller including super detailing accessories
●70019 - Hawker Hurricane Mk I Junior Set for beginners and for the collectors looking for quick-built kits

Arma Hobby Hurricane model is especially recommended to modellers interested in the history of the 303 Squadron. A great inspiration for them will be two coming this summer movies: “Hurricane: Squadron 303” and “Dywizjon 303”. The model includes insignia of such Aces as Urbanowicz, Zumbach, Frantisek and others.

Model Features
●A well-reproduced fuselage of a mixed construction and metal wings surface
●Detailed interior of the cockpit
●Details of the inside of the wheel bays
●Canopy in both open and closed position
●Optional tropical version
●Two types of propeller blades and three types of propeller spinner
●Photo-etched plates with details (small in Junior Set and significant in Expert Set)
●Cockpit and wheel masks (Expert Set)

There are lots and lots of CAD images on the ARMA Hobby Website
