Hawker Typhoon RC plans or kits

RAF Spitfire ace Johnny Johnson called the Hawker Typhoon pilots "the bravest of the brave". The Hawker Typhoon probably the most devastating air to ground attack aircraft of WWII.


The Hawker Typhoon lends itself well for a rc warbird model, so what's out there for plans, kits, or arfs.

Roy Vaillancourt drew & flew a 96" wingspan version, plans and parts at https://ziroligiantscaleplans.com/vailly-aviation-scale-plans.html . There numerous kit cutters offering short or full kits and numerous build threads on the web, just google Vaillancourt Hawker Typhoon build.
