Hawker Typhoon — the RAF’s fearsome low-level ground-attack aircraft of World War II. ✈️ Originally designed as a fighter, the Typhoon came into its own as a fighter-bomber, armed with rockets and cannons that proved devastating against German armor, trains, and troop columns—especially during the Normandy campaign and the advance across Northwest Europe. A rugged aircraft that reshaped close air support and left a lasting mark on WWII battlefield tactics. | WW2 Sky Stories

A part of Gloucestershire heritage is being restored thanks to a team of volunteers and apprentices. A Hawker Typhoon World War II aircraft is being worked on at the workshop of The Jet Age Museum and the undercarriage has been carefully restored by apprentices from Safran at Staverton. All 3300 examples of the Hawker Typhoon were built by the Gloster Aircraft Company. | BBC Gloucestershire
