Among several variations of this main fighter of Royal Air Force, the Mk.V series was the most widely produced and more than 6500 planes were deployed. By early 1941, the majority of fighter squadrons were furnished with Spitfire Mk.I. Improvements were suggested by the pilots and every effort was made to maintain its performance advantages over its opponents. The main improvement was the use of the more powerful Merlin type 45 engine and a version with a mixed armament of four 7.7mm machine guns and two 20mm cannon was named \"Mk.Vb\". Some Mk.Vb's has slipped wing tips for better low altitude maneuverability. In 1942, the Spitfire was also urgently required for operations overseas. One of the better known versions was the North African prepared Spitfire designated \"TROP.\", for Tropical. To protect engine from sand, a Vokes air filter was affixed over the carburetor intake. Although the filter was successful, its large mass reduced the aircraft's speed. The problem was solved by 103rd maintenance unit stationed at Aboukir, who designed a smaller more streamlined unit that was equally effective. The spitfire went through numerous minor and major changes throughout its production life, and served with distinction on every battle front of the war.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-bottom-right col-sm-10\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-collateral toggle-content tabs js-toggle-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"collateral-tabs\" id=\"collateral-tabs\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"tab-container current\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-collateral toggle-content tabs js-toggle-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"collateral-tabs\" id=\"collateral-tabs\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"tab-container current\"\u003e\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","published_at":"2020-09-30T14:38:45+02:00","created_at":"2020-09-30T14:37:42+02:00","vendor":"TAMIYA","type":"PLASTICS","tags":["1\/72 plastic","plastic models","plastic planes"],"price":37500,"price_min":37500,"price_max":37500,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":32784974381141,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"TAM60756","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"Tamiya - 1\/72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.Vb\/Mk.Vb Trop","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":37500,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":0,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/gpmodels.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60756.jpg?v=1601469516"],"featured_image":"\/\/gpmodels.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60756.jpg?v=1601469516","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":7623471661141,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.6,"height":400,"width":640,"src":"\/\/gpmodels.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60756.jpg?v=1601469516"},"aspect_ratio":1.6,"height":400,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/gpmodels.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60756.jpg?v=1601469516","width":640}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-main\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-main-bottom\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row product-info-main full-width\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-bottom-left col-sm-14\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"short-description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"std\"\u003eAbout the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.Vb\/Mk.Vb Trop.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe mass production of the Spitfire started in 1936 and more than 20000 planes were produced until 1948.

In 1939, the De Havilland company envisioned the plane to be an unarmed high speed bomber, and had experience with the Comet, which was a wooden racing plane. Except for the engine and landing gear, the Mosquito was comprised of wood, offering strategic advantages. The wooden construction would save on important metals such as aluminium, it could also be built in converted furniture factories. The Air Ministry was reluctant to adopt the wooden aircraft, but placed orders for 50 planes in March 1940 for reconnaissance use. In November 1940, the Mosquito reached speeds of 630km\/h during test flights, demonstrating its potential and quickly prompting additional orders of 150 planes. The Mosquito PR Mk. I reconnaissance plane was first deployed in July 1941; the B Mk. IV bomber started deployment in the Spring of 1942. On May 31, 1942, the Mosquitoes led a daylight raid on Cairn. In September 1942, the Gestapo headquarters in Oslo was bombed. German officials delivering a daytime speech in Berlin were attacked on January 30, 1943.
