Hawker Sea Fury

Hawker Sea Fury

Originally designed for the Royal Air Force as a light Tempest Fighter, the end of the Second World War saw the RAF cancel its order for the fighter. The Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm saw the Fury as an ideal option to replace a range of aircraft and ordered it as the Hawker Sea Fury with deliveries beginning in 1947.

The Sea Fury was operated from British and Australian aircraft carriers during the Korean War. Cuba operated the type during the Bay of Pigs invasion, while Iraq donated several to Egypt which operated them during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. Burma, Pakistan, Iraq and the Netherlands used Sea Furies for counter insurgency operations.
