[Development] De Havilland Hornet

Developed in the early 1940s to serve as a long range fighter in the Pacific, the de Havilland Hornet was not only one of Britain’s fastest twin-engine heavy fighter ever built, but was also the last aircraft of its kind in service with the RAF, before new state-of-the-art jet-powered aircraft would take its place. Meet the new Hornet F.3 with War Thunder’s upcoming 1.71 update!

In November 1942, a year after the Mosquito started rolling off the assembly line, the de Havilland company began work on a new twin-engine fighter, intended to conduct long-range operations in the Pacific theatre. The new aircraft, designated D.H.103, was designed around the concept of taking maximum advantage of the Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, and was started as a private venture by de Havilland. Although the airframe resembled that of the Mosquito, it was far smaller and more streamlined. To save on resources, the de Havilland designers opted to further exploit the wooden construction techniques that they successfully pioneered on the Mosquito, thus the new aircraft was to also receive a sturdy plywood construction. By the end of 1942, a mock-up was ready for inspection by officials of the British Ministry of Aircraft Production. Though impressed by the design, construction of the aircraft was not immediately granted by the Ministry due to heavy commitments to other wartime projects at the time. However, several months later, in mid 1943, the D.H. 103 received the construction approval and was subsequently renamed into the Hornet.

The Hornet F.3 has received green light to join the ranks of the Royal Air Force with War Thunder’s upcoming 1.71 update. See you there!
