Acwai Hurricane Trop mods for CFS2 by UncleTgt
This is a collection of mods to model Acwai's Hurricanes as trop models, with the Vokes filter fitted, for CFS 2.
I was really interested in combat use outside the UK & Europe, & it seems here the Hurricane's nearly always flew with the Vokes filter fitted, to protect the engine life.
There's plenty of discussion online about how the Vokes filter adversely affected performance. So in order to try to model this impact, each sub-type really needs it's own airfile, cfg & DP.
So I set about creating separate aircraft folders thus:
mkI trop (8 gun wing, Vokes fitted) Uses Acwai Hurricane1 model
mkIIA trop (8 gun wing, Vokes fitted) Uses Acwai Hurricane1 model
mkIIB trop (12 gun wing, Vokes fitted) Uses Acwai Hurricane1 model
mkIIC trop (4 cannon wing, Vokes fitted) Uses Acwai Hurricane2 model
Adjustments made:
Contact Points tweaked, & some more added so you can belly-land when you have to!
Airfile worked upon, checking for max speed, ceiling & range, making sure AI formation flight behaviour remains stable.
DP adjustments made to MISC DATA & gundata values to better match others in use the the sim.
Panel.cfg - Added rear view (number pad 2) to mimic the view seen from the mirror position.
As I progressed I found I needed to create additional versions of the Vokes filter object so they matched the different underside colours found.
You will need Acwai's Hurricane 1 & Hurricane 2. The rest of the process is just copy & paste as required, to create trop versions of mkI, mkIIA, mkIIB, & mkIIC Hurricanes. No textures are supplied, as I hope to release a series of skinpacks in the very near future for use with these mods.
For completeness I've also included the missing gauges, plus a DP file for the pylon (WEP_Hurr_pylon)missing from the Hurricane_I upload NOV2025.
Thanks to
Acwai for his Hurricane models
