The Supermarine Spitfire is regarded by many as the most beautifully designed single-seat fighter to appear during WWII. The Spitfire went through numerous major and minor changes throughout its long production life. Early improvements resulted in the Mk.V series of Spitfires, which became the most widely produced versions of all Mk's. The main improvements were the furnishing of the three wing armament configurations, and the use of the more powerful Merlin-type 45 engine. The most numerous Mk.V was the "B" winged version, which had a mixed armament of two 7.7mm machine guns and one 20mm cannon in each wing.

Supermarine Spitfire Mk V

Designed by R.J.Michell to meet a British Air Ministry specification, the Supermarine Spitfire first flown on March 5th, 1936. With its combination of beautiful fighter design, the excellent performance of its Rolls-Royce Merlin powerplant and firepower provided by twin cannons and four machine guns, the Spitfire became an unrivaled symbol of victory. The Spitfire had 40 major variants and was built in greater numbers than any other British aircraft of the time. It flew operationally on every front between 1939 and 1945 and was engaged in every one of the Royal Air Force's major actions.
