Hawker Hurricane in Finnish Service
Finland purchased 12 Hawker Hurricane Mk. I fighters from the United Kingdom in early 1940. Unfortunately two of these were lost during the delivery flight. A lack of access to spares and heavy usage resulted in limited combat during the Continuation War. An additional Hurricane Mk. IIB was captured from the Soviet Union and repaired.
