Hawker Typhoon

This was a very strong aircraft and very effective too

Group Captain Desmond Scott, a former Typhoon pilot, wrote

"If a self propelled gun in a certain grid number was giving trouble we would
immediately streak down and blow it to pieces. Tanks, guns, mortar positions
and troop concentrations were attacked in this manner, some very close to our
own troops. It was the ultimate in close-support operations"
