General information

The Sea Fury FB 11 is a British fighter. It was introduced in Update 1.49 "Weapons of Victory".

Situated at the end of Rank IV, the aircraft sports a powerful engine, high speeds, good rate of climb, surprising agility as well as a wide track undercarriage for easier carrier recovery by comparison to its Seafire predecessors. Pilots who are familiar with the Hawker Tempest series within the British tree will be able to quickly master the Sea Fury. Indeed it inherits the excellent Bristol Centaurus radial engine as well as the sleek wing shape sporting a hard-hitting cannon arrangement from the Hawker Tempest II. The Sea Fury has 4 x 20 mm Hispano Mk V cannons with a total 580 maximum ammunition capacity. This extremely generous cannon load is further complemented by invested research into the "Offensive 20 mm belts" that offers the "Air Targets" configuration. This is a highly efficient and effective choice for air-to-air engagements and ensures the maximum potential out of your ammunition supply in dogfights. As well as this, the Sea Fury also has a range of external stores available after unlocking the appropriate modifications 250 lb or 500 lb bombs as well as RP-3 rockets which can be mounted on hardpoints under the wing, allowing the aircraft to remain flexible in a variety of situations and fulfil its role as a fighter-bomber.

Much like its other Hawker brethren, the Sea Fury is very dependent on energy, but also still quite manoeuvrable. Most aircraft that it cannot beat in a turn fighting situation, it can simply out-dive and vice versa. This will, of course, require knowledge and understanding of your opponent and constant situational awareness to review the situation and act accordingly. Due to its high performance as one of the final production propeller-driven aircraft, the Sea Fury will often face the very best in piston engine aircraft as well as the early generation of jet aircraft. However, its combined all-around characteristics, particularly when further enhanced with researched upgrades, will be more than sufficient to engage almost any opposition the aircraft will come into contact with.
