background info ----> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Air_Force_roundels

SEAC only had white and blue roundels (with yellow outer 'recognition band') in early 1942 before being replaced by the 2-tone blue roundels; the RAAF only ever got 1 Hurricane painted in the white and blue roundels as first pic above; although it carried 3 different schemes in its' lifetime. All other Aussie squadrons served in North Africa and Europe, so their Hurricanes never got the RAAF-style roundels, and the 4 Hurricanes that survived fall of Singapore of 488 Sqn RNZAF were put into reserve once back in NZ.

The only other Hurricanes to see action in that part of world were Fleet Air Arm Sea Hurricanes.
