Difference between the Hurricanes and Spitfires

[Leonidas]

Yes I know that they are VERY different but what exactly is different between them. Which one is (subjectively) better? Also what are all the different versions and how are THOSE different?
Also, I am requesting pizza.

The Spitfire is higher tech. with more room for development. The main advantage of the Hurricane is it was very easy to make and repair, easy to fly. There was also a huge difference in almost all respects between the first MKI Hurricane and the last MkI, same with the Spitfire.

One was better than the other.

One was better than the other.

The Hurricane was fitted with Balkenkreuz first and held that advantage for many years.

Channelling my inner Eric Morecambe, I declare that one was better than the other, but not at the same thing at the same time.

If your pizza takes as long as fighter development, I think it's gonna be cold.
