The Hawker Sea Fury is a British all-metal fighter-bomber from the end of World War II. The prototype flight took place on February 21, 1945, and entry into service with the FAA took place at the end of the same year. The propulsion was a powerful Bristol Centaurus 18 engine with a power of 2480HP. The Hawker Sea Fury was the Royal Navy's last classic fighter, culminating in the evolution of the Hawker Typhoon and Hawker Tempest aircraft. Initially, the plane was designed for the needs of the RAF, but in 1943. Modifications for the Royal Navy were also started and the first Sea Fury prototype took off two years later. The first prototype did not have folding wings, and only after appropriate modification, an order for 200 aircraft of this type was placed. After the end of the war, improvements were made to the operation of aircraft carriers., Finally in early 1947. the plane received the necessary classification. The first mass-produced version was the classic fighter version of the Mk.X, but the Mk.XI (FB11) variant, which was a fighter-bomber, entered production very quickly. It remained in service until 1953. A two-person training version was also created (T. Mk.20). Aircraft of this type in the FB11 version were used in the Korean War, where one of these fighters shot down a Soviet Mig 15. The Mk.60 and Mk.61 models are export versions for Pakistan. Globally, 864 units of this great fighter were created.
