Re: Bentley Tempest drawings
Yes. The Fury has often been described as a lightweight Tempest, using the same Centaurus engine but in a smaller airframe. The Sea Fury was simply a navalised version of it featuring folding wings, arrestor hook etc.. The slightly 'humped' fuselage which raised the cockpit of the Sea Fury helped visibility during deck landings.
Standing next to a Sea Fury it seems huge, so imagine how big the Tempest was!!!
