+1, but some DM tuning might also be needed, as well as some very minor tweaking of external 3D, and some revision to cockpits.

Assuming that the Hurricane Mk. I in the game represents late 1939 production, as shipped to the FAF during the Winter War, other marks of Hurricane I would be roughly as follows:

March 1940 production - 12 lb. emergency boost (vs. 6 lb. for early production, for up to 5 minutes, using 100 octane fuel). Probably the easiest new variant to add.

May 1940 production - As above, but also armor plate behind pilot's head and seat.

Mark I "Tropical" (June 1940) - As above, but Vokes air filter added.

August 1940 production - As for May 1940 production above, but Schilling orifice, improved fire protection for fuselage fuel tank (earlier version of the Hurricane were very vulnerable to fuselage fuel tank fires which could penetrate to the cockpit burning the pilot, especially when the plane was hit from the front).

September 1940 production - Improved radio. IFF added. Radio aerials from rear fuselage to horizontal stabilizer. Radio aerial from radio mast to rudder removed and radio mast slightly revised. Slightly reduced top speed.

Sounds good! It will come when it's ready!

I think a may 1940 production one would be the best to include. Of course the later variant with the schilling orifice would be even better, but in my opinion that would be a little bit silly. (Mk.IIs and Spitfire MK.Vs have engine cut out when affected by negative G, but earlier Mk.I not?)
We absolutely need a fine representation of the real hero of the battle of britain, the Hurricane I.

What I would like to ask is, there is a Hurricane 1938 in the list, but its somewhere near the Hs-129 and not located (by name) near the other Hurricanes.

Is it possible to relocate it next to the other Hurricanes?

Why don't you just change your list to alphabetical order?

That hurricane is for the axis,thats why it is in with the hs129 etc.it is for the finns, winter war against russia and the continuation war.

@ Verdun, thats to easy bro

I was used to have the same order as in the old il2, so i realy stuck here. I like how the list is done by nations, but that seems to be the problem for me.

Lets see if TD will create a MK I for the RAF
