the hawker hurricane was the most commonly used aircraft of the RAF (Royal Air Force) and was the one that shot down most enemy aircraft during the Battle of Britain in the Second World War shooting down at least a 60% of the enemy planes. It consisted a single seated aircraft with a solid base with machine guns, designed and invented by Hawker aircraft ltd in 1930.
However the Supermarine Spitfire was a newer invention and was a more maneuverable and was quicker and more lethal,designed and produced by Vickers Armstrong in 1928. It could easily match a german Focke Wulf or a Messerschmidt. It had a better visibility in the cabin and was the favourite of any pilot who flew it. Despite its advantages over a Hurricane, less were produced.
So in conclusion I would say that the Supermarine Spitfire would be better.
I hope my answer is usefull as it is the first time I answer at Answers.com
Thank you
Hurricane Jeanne in 2004 is an example of a hurricane that crossed Florida more than once. It made landfall in Florida multiple times, causing widespread damage and impacting the same areas repeatedly.
Hurricane Katrina, which struck the Gulf Coast in 2005, was worse than Hurricane Camille in terms of its widespread devastation and loss of life. The catastrophic flooding in New Orleans and the overall economic impact made Katrina one of the costliest hurricanes in U.S. history.
Hurricanes are typically referred to by gender-neutral pronouns, such as "it," rather than assigning a specific gender to them. So Hurricane Able would be referred to as "it."
Hurricane Rita came about a month after Hurricane Katrina, making landfall on the Gulf Coast in late September 2005. Both hurricanes had devastating impacts on the region and caused widespread destruction and loss of life.
; Category One Hurricane: Winds 74-95 mph; Category Two Hurricane: Winds 96-110 mph; Category Three Hurricane: Winds 111-130 mph; Category Four Hurricane: Winds 131-155 mph; Category Five Hurricane: Winds greater than 155 mph
The Supermarine Spitfire was faster than the Hawker Hurricane, with a top speed of over 360 mph compared to the Hurricane's top speed of around 340 mph. The Spitfire also had better overall performance characteristics, making it a more capable fighter aircraft.
the spitfire is slightly faster but the hurricane had bigger guns which might have slowed it down.
The Spitfire is a much more famous aircraft than the Hurricane and in so many ways was undeniably superior.The Spitfire was faster, considerably faster and was far better constructed. The Hurricane, however was far more maneuverable, had a greater range and a higher operating ceiling.The Spitfire had 8 machine guns whilst the Hurricane had a mere 4. The Hurricane was outdated before it even saw service and was effectively a follow on to First World War airplanes where as the Spitfire was the first of a more modern style of plane.All things considered it would be a very close thing. In the end it would come down to the pilots involved. The Hurricane was outclassed by virtually all the German craft it faced and yet still won through. The Spitfire too punched well above its weightclass.It should be easy. It should be the Spitfire. Instead we are declaring it a draw and are putting it down to the pilots on the day.
No Way!
I know one of them is the Supermarine Spitfire II
The Spitfire was better designed and had the best engine.
hurricane harber
Spitfire and Hurricane fighters
Because it was fast, light, well armed and maneuverable (much more so than the Hurricane)
Spitfire, Hurricane and Lancaster are 3 of the most well known.
The Spitfire and The Hurricane
No, no they are not. They are preety fast but not faster than spitfire.
