Airfix Supermarine Spitfire Mk.VC Aircraft Model Kit (Scale 1:72)

Product Information (Discontinued)

An Airfix 1:72 scale aircraft model kit of the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.VC.

Described as arguably the most effective "stop-gap" aircraft the RAF ever introduced, the Spitfire Mk.V combined the additional power of the Rolls Royce Merlin 45 engine with the original Mk.I/II airframe and proved to be more than a match for the latest Luftwaffe fighters.

With the increased production capacity offered by the new Castle Bromwich shadow factory, Spitfire Mk.V fighters were produced at a spectacular rate, with this interim variant going on to be the most produced version of the Spitfire, with almost 6,500 aircraft manufactured.

Spitfire Mk.Vs fought in the home defence role, above the deserts of North Africa and the jungles of the Far East.
