Default Centre hung sash on old council hinges

I have been asked to replace 2 sash windows but i have never seen this type before. The sashes are centre hung on hinges either side of the sash (council hinges). I have a couple fo questions.

If replacing the windows should i replace with the same ?
Would the hinges be strong enough to take a new sash with a double glazed unit ?

Thx..
