Hawker Typhoon: Too Dangerous to Fly, Too Valuable to Cancel

#hawkertyphoon #militaryaviation #aviation documentary The Hawker Typhoon claimed more of its own pilots at a rate that should have seen it cancelled. Structural failures ripped tails off in flight. Carbon monoxide seeped into cockpits. The Sabre engine seized without warning. Men died in training accidents more often than in combat. So why didn't they cancel it? Because by 1943, the RAF was trapped. Fourteen squadrons operational, four hundred aircraft in service, and cancelling meant telling Parliament they'd spent a battleship's worth of money on a fighter that killed more of its own pilots than the Luftwaffe did. This is the story of how an aircraft that failed at everything it was designed to do became the most devastating ground-attack weapon of the Normandy campaign. From the tip-and-run raids over southern England to the carnage at Mortain and Falaise, the Typhoon's journey from death trap to legend is one of the most remarkable redemption stories in aviation history. Featuring exclusive footage of MN235 - the only surviving Typhoon in the world - at the RAF Museum. ======================== Primary References: ======================== Tony Buttler, Hawker Typhoon: The RAF's Ground-Breaking Fighter-Bomber (Key Publishing Ltd, 2022) Richard Townshend Bickers, Hawker Typhoon: The Combat History (Airlife Publishing Ltd, 2002) Chris Thomas, Hawker Typhoon (Warpaint Series No. 5, Hall Park Books, 2000) Chris Thomas & Christopher Shores, The Typhoon and Tempest Story (Arms & Armour Press, 1988) Archives & Collections: RAF Museum, Hendon - MN235, the sole surviving Hawker Typhoon Periodicals: Flight magazine, contemporary wartime reporting (1942-1945) ======================== Channel Links: ======================== 📺 Video contains brief, transformed clips from the following films and shows: All footage is used under Fair Use for the purpose of commentary, storytelling, and historical reference.
