Description
The story of the Tempest is nothing more than an attempt to address the shortcomings of Hawker Typhoon, which prevented it from being a successful fighter. The main problem of the Typhoon was the thick wing with NACA22 profile, offering lot of inner space for fuel and armament, but building drag rapidly with rising speed. Not surprisingly the the wing of the core of the changes on the way to the new fighter. The new wing design was originally supposed to retain the Typhoon name as the Mark II, but it became obvious, the result would be a new plane, so the name was changed to the Tempest, following the traditional path of Hawker to use the "wind" names for its fighters.
