Supermarine Spitfire model airplane

Without doubt the best known British aircraft of World War II, the Spitfire prototype flew for the first time on March 5, 1936. Comparatively little flight testing was needed to confirm this airplane as a winner, due to its superb handling qualities and performance. Deliveries of the airplane began in July, 1938. On October 16, 1939, a Spitfire claimed the first German aircraft to be destroyed over the UK. By 1942 Supermarine Spitfires were operational in the Middle East, and by early 1943 the first Spitfires were arriving in the Pacific Theater. In growing numbers, and with increasing capability, the Spitfire served throughout World War II, not only with the RAF, but with the nation's allies, including US and Soviet squadrons. This airplane also had the distinction of remaining in production throughout World War II and was operational postwar, the last mission flown by a photo-reconnaissance Spitfire on April 1954. There were a total of 20,334 Spitfires built. The Spitfire MK I was the initial production version, with a 1,030-hp Merlin II engine. There were 170 Mk IIB's built, this version using a 1,175-hp Merlin XII engine. The Spitfire Mk IX was a union of two-stage Merlin 61, 63, or 70 engines, with Spitfire Mk V airframe, with 5,665 of this version of the airplane built. The Spitfire Mk VA, used one 1,478-hp Rolls-Royce Merlin 45 Vee engine, giving the airplane a maximum speed of 369 mph at 19,500 feet, service ceiling of 36,500 feet, and a maximum range of 1,135 miles. Airplane armament was eight 303-caliber Browning machine guns.
