Hawker Hind
Previous | Home | Next
| The Hawker Hind is a two-seater single-engined day bomber, and is one of the smallest maintained for this purpose. Two 250-lb. bombs are carried, or a larger number of smaller bombs. Two Vickers guns, firing through the air-screw lie in the slots visible in the nose of the plane, and the Lewis gun is mounted over the back cockpit. A Rolls-Royce Kestrel engine supplies the power, and will lift the plane to a "'service" ceiling of 26,400 feet. |
