Italeri 2713S 1/48 Sea Hurricane Model Kit Overview

The Italeri 2713S Sea Hurricane in 1/48 scale gives Canadian modellers a chance to build a faithful replica of the naval-adapted Hawker Hurricane. This kit highlights the aircraft used to protect convoys, including the adaptations needed for catapult launches from merchant vessels that lacked recovery facilities.

Service History and Modelling Notes

The Sea Hurricane Mk Ib featured an arrestor hook for carrier operations and saw action from ships such as HMS Furious and HMS Eagle. By early 1942 the Mk Ic entered service and over 400 were produced, operating across the Atlantic and Mediterranean. The kit reflects these operational details while offering a satisfying build for experienced hobbyists.
