Renowned as a premier combat aircraft, the Supermarine Spitfire’s fundamental design allowed continuous upgrades, keeping it in production throughout World War II. This flexibility led to the rapid introduction of the Spitfire Mk.IX in summer 1942, developed to counter the formidable Focke Wulf FW190 ‘Butcher Bird’. Often regarded as one of the most effective interim fighters ever produced, this model captures a pivotal moment in military aviation history. The kit includes 124 detailed parts and offers three distinct paint schemes.
