How do you compare that the Typhoon looks like a Spitfire on Steriods and the Tempest looks like a Hurricane on Steriods...when the Typhoon and Tempest look identical? :o

Beats me, that's just the mental image I get whenever I see the name "Typhoon" or "Tempest". :03:

what about the Hawker Hurricane, Typhoon and Tempest! :stare:

The Hurricane, Typhoon and Tempest are myths. They never existed. The only British fighter plane of WWII was the Spitfire.

I know it to be true! I've seen it in movies- those don't lie!

:nope:
Bristol Scout, Sopwith Camel, deHavilland Mosquito, Hawker Hunter, Hawker Hawk; all of them, Fury, Gloster Javelin, etc. etc. etc.

This site might help...

Unless your definition of normal looking is something that looks like a Spitfire? :P

Does the B-57 ring any bells?

Kind of strange that the US flew a British designed plane named after the Australian Capital city!
