Yugoslavian "Hurricane" fighter in flight

From 1938 to 1941 Yugoslavia bought from the British Hawker firm 24 of the Yugoslavian Hawker Hurricane fighter aircraft and built under license for another 24 aircraft.
Yugoslavian Hawker Hurricane fighters had little effect on the course of the Balkan campaign. During the fighting in April 1941, four Hurricane were shot down, and the rest is lost as a result of accidents or destroyed on the ground.
