Real name: Eurofighter Typhoon
The Hurricane is the king of fast and accurate missile firing. It can fire missiles faster than any other plane and has excellent missile locking speed and missile tracking. It is also faster than the Hawken but it does not inflict nearly as much damage per missile/cannon fire as the Hawken. For 205 coins, it is a bit pricey but if you really want to be the fastest and most accurate missile gunslinger, this is the plane for you.
See PLANE COMPARISON TABLES for detailed assessment of all the planes performance ratings.

Just for correction, this is a weapons class plane and not a defense one, as listed above his real name bellow title topic.

Thanks, I've corrected - too much copying and pasting. I want to cover all the planes but it is more work than I thought!
ReplyDeleteI love the FA-88 (thought I could do without the Austrian roundels) in that for a beginner, you can inflict a lot of damage without dogfighting skills (hello pre-Top Gun 1960s American fighter thinking). I don't like it as much in Versus mode in that I can get my rear end kicked by more agile fighters. The Red Widow is my choice for those matches.
ReplyDeleteRedWidow versus Hurricane : RedWidow is indeed Marginally superior.. BUT If theres a Fight between Two, as skilled Pilot will catch on weapon class Deficiency and beat either... For Hurricane to win it must capitalise of superior manuevers and inlift missile damage to redwidow..While avoiding Close Combats to avoid Cannons...
Deletedid you notice its used for the tutorial?
DeleteIt's the one in the demo! OMG!!!
ReplyDeleteThe FA-88 HURRICANE is BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah isn't it just so ####ing beautiful, It has been tempting me fr the past 24 hours lol :-D
DeleteListen up Helios!!! Hurrican is NOT The best Weapons class plane... Try comparing with Sentinel Overall and Liberty as well.. Its Not as good.
Deletecheers...
I always win with Hurricane , Not so much with Hawken or Sentinel or even EagleX.. why?????
DeleteIt's ur flying stlyle.. I win with my liberty and hurricane much more than my red widow or reaper..
DeleteHas the hurricane been replaced by the j20 chengdu? I now see it instead of the hurricane using the regional trick. I was expecting more classic planes like saber but...

Sorry I meant j35 dynasty, not the real life j20.
Deletet_park
this is weird i just played metalstorm today and the hurricane was not on sale anymore
ReplyDeleteNo more hurricane
ReplyDelete.:Arman92:.
I know! it sucks that the dynasty replaced the hurricane
DeleteWe want hurricane back
ReplyDeleteDynasty was replaced by Odyssey so now it is available as permanent plane
ReplyDeleteOh after that the Paladin became a permanent plane and then the featured planes came back.
ReplyDeleteHey wannabe Typhoon pilots, a real life Eurofighter Typhoon Experimental Test Pilot takes you through his airshow flight display, explaining each and every maneuver: http://youtu.be/G-LvjdOfq6M
ReplyDeleteI think the tutorial plane is a fully upgraded fa-88.
ReplyDeletePaladin replaced by zephyr replaced by mako
ReplyDeleteYup. Wait for next one. hope i's Iron Fang.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Hurricane.
ReplyDeleteYup the Hurricane is back.
DeleteWith its missile reload speed it can be very useful but it doesn't come with damage.
I think the hawken is better.

Don't be seduced by its good looks if your planning on buying it make sure it is the plane for you
ReplyDeleteI made the mistake of buying when I'm an agility class fighter and now the only time I use it is for the first mission of the campaign
