General Feel:

The Typhoon Mk.IA a weird (but not bad) point along the British interceptor tree.

Fire Power:

The t5 Hurricane Mk.IV had some of the most brutal cannon fire in the game (compared to other planes of similar tier). Even its t4 predecessor boasted cannons, but this t6 plane has what appears to be 12 pea shooters. As it would turn out, pilots should really avoid eating the vegetables coming from this plane as 12 pea shooters kill off a pilot extremely quickly with armour penetrating ammo equipped. Wings aren't safe either. There is enough ammo to take out 3 planes without reloading if you are efficient.

8x Rockets is a little overkill, but who's complaining? Answer, the enemy. Do not fly directly at the Typhoon Mk.IA. Even without cannons, 8 rockets are enough to burst down any plane on a fly by rocket sniffing session. It should be noted, that the RP-3 rockets have a lot of drop off compared to say, the American Bazooka Rockets, so in a game of head to head chicken, Typhoon Mk.IA pilots should either stop firing their machine guns and nose up before loosing their rockets or wait till the enemy is close enough that the drop off won't matter.

The Typhoon Mk.IA is extremely tanky and its machine guns have an obscene amount of ammo. Coupled with a short reload time, there is no need to equip a gun reloader and thus its 4th supply slot can be filled with an energy. Tanky stats combined with extra evade swipes makes the Mk.IA a true survivor, despite being outclassed in speed and turning ability by planes more specialized in those stats.
