Hawker Hotspur
The Hawker Hotspur was a fighter aircraft used principally by the Royal Air Force. It was designed in response to Air Ministry Specification F.9/35, which required a powered turret as the main armament to replace the Hawker Demon. It was developed from the Hawker Henley, which was redesigned to take a Boulton-Paul semi-powered four gun turret.
