If i remember correctly, IL-2 models one kind of spinner while the screenshots we've seen of SoW tend to model the other one.

The Hurricane went through 4 types of spinners in it's career:

- A small, pointy spinner for the Watts 2-bladed non-variable propeller, pre-war and very early war only.

- A slightly larger, pointy spinner for the DeHaviland three-bladed propeller, early Mk.Is only. This is what we see in the IL2 version of the Mk.I.

- A blunt, somewhat oversized Rotol spinner really made for the Spitfire, but fitted to most medium- to late model Mk.Is. This is the type of spinner we see in Oleg's SoW screenshots.

- A semi-pointed long spinner for the Mk.II marks and later. This is well represented in IL2.
