Designed initially to replace the Hawker Hurricane as the complementary high altitude fighter to the Supermarine Spitfire, the Typhoon instead found its fame as a low altitude ground attack aircraft, spearheading the airbourne assault through occupied Europe after D-Day. Designed around the enormous 24 cylinder Napier Sabre, the Typhoon has a tough gestation before maturing as a capable, low level fighter bomber, devastating German armour in Normandy and beyond.
