1:72 Spitfire MK.IX

The Supermarine Spitfire fighter aircraft is undoubtedly one of the most famous planes in aviation history and is considered an icon of British aviation production. This single-engine low-wing aircraft, well-armed, formed the backbone of the Royal Air Force's combat units during the Battle of Britain against the German Luftwaffe in its early versions, alongside the Hawker Hurricane. The aircraft is characterized by its harmonious design, elliptical wing shape, and powerful Rolls-Royce Merlin engine. Throughout the war, the Spitfire was continuously developed in its aerodynamic configuration and engines in response to the technological innovations of its opponents, which led to the development of the extraordinary Focke-Wulf Fw 190. A specific example of this is the Spitfire Mk IX, which, thanks to its performance, was able to compete under equal conditions with the more advanced German fighters.
