Behold, the glorious Supermarine Spitfire of the Mk IX model has arrived. Featuring fully laden camouflage, detailed and historically accurate cockpit, (partially) functioning radiator flaps (via throttle), custom pitch and yaw controls and much more! Surprisingly easy landing too (even for someone who can't land the Bush Plane).
Big thanks to @Feanor and @EpicPigster1 for assisting in making this build possible!
Controls:
VTOL - Flaps
AG-1 + VTOL - Open cockpit canopy and door
AG-8 - Navigation Lights
Feedback/Criticism encouraged!
Infomation:
In the early months of 1942, with the clear superiority of the Focke Wulf Fw 190 over the Spitfire VB, there was much pressure to get Spitfires into production using the new two-stage supercharged Merlin 61 engine. In September 1941 the Spitfire Mk III prototype N3297 had been converted by Rolls-Royce at their Hucknall plant to take a Merlin 60, which had been specifically designed for use in the Wellington Mk VI high altitude bomber.

@lol112 it’s a spitfire?
guys its the mustard!
nice plane but pls fix the problem of it randomly turning left or right on the ground
Very nice
You should add glass to the spitfire
@EFO05 this specific version of the spitfire i believe had a pressurized carburetor witch meant it didnt have the negative G issue of the previous models

one question, does it have guns?
Oh thanks@CoolPeach
Nudge it up a bit, it controls the cockpit canopy.
@nuke778
@CoolPeach is there any way i can get rid of that bar in the cockpit and what is it for?
cool
I think you managed to achieve the look of the spit much more accurately than mine, so very well done. Thank you for your kind words too.
@CursedFlames
