I wager it was the British Hurricanes and the few Spitfires that saved the UK in the Battle of Brittain which kept Germany's war on two fronts so they couldn't just focus on the Ruskies, which in turn led to Germany's defeat which allowed more resources to be sent to the pacific and more money for technologies which led to the completion of the atomic bomb.
So yeah, the dated but functional Hurricane allowed the allies to win the Second World War, in both theatres.
Edit- And the lama was the pilot.
