The Mk XIVc is probably my favorite. It maintains fluid maneuverability because of its lighter airframe than the XIVe that eventually went into production, but also packs the famed Griffon engine, making it wildly more flexible than its other Griffon counterparts (except in a dive of course). In-game, it retains a low enough BR that it doesn't have to get dunked on by jets.

Spitfire is my absolute favorite plane family. I love every single one variant, but if I had to choose some favorites, I'd say: - IIb for its excellent performance and firepower compared to competitors. In proper hands it can obliterate enemy team. - Vc/trop because of its firepower allowing it to destroy any enemy in half a second and filters allowing it to operate in Africa without issues. - all LF IX variants, but especially Plagis premium - thanks to older armament of 4 7,7s and 2 20mms it's a bit lighter and more maneuverable than other variants with .50cals and MG ammo lasts for longer, so you can effectively destroy more planes than with default 2 .50cals and 2 20mms, even tho it's theoretically weaker. - XVI for its cool cut wing look (let's be real, all Spitfires look awesome, but this one is just dope). - 24 for its powerful engine and decent CAS capabilities, allowing it to strike any target (air or ground) fast and suddenly and get away quick from AA fire. In short, there's Spitfire for everyone in this game and on every tier there's at least one exceptional variant, which excels in any situation. Of course, these planes are easy to fly, but that doesn't mean any dumbass can instantly get 10 kills without thinking. But if someone can think while flying, Spitfire rewards it more than most planes in game.

Thank you for doing a video of my number 1 favorite plane. The Spitfire

My favorite spitfire is Spitfire Mk Vc now called Mk Vc/Trop, when british 20mms had stealth air target shells ♥

The mk XVI and mk IX are visually identical, the only real differences were the Packard Merlin in the XVI and and sometimes (but not always) wing armament. They were built side by side and had the same type number (Supermarine type 631). Unfortunately there are ( I think) only 2 mk IX bubble canopy airframes in existence , and they are in museums, so when we see a flying mk IX type airframe with a bubble canopy we know it is a mk XVI - not by how it looks visually, but by the fact that the only surviving flying airframes of this type are mk XVIs. Like you said though, they do look cool!

For me the XIVe is the perfect mixture of both worlds. It's Griffon Spitfire that retains good manuverability, without much sacrifice, other than climb rate, which is already abysmal enough that it doesn't really matter. It flies well, it's shots hurt, that's enough for it to be a good plane, it also doesn't suffer from being uptiered to 7.0 and up, having to face jets that not even other jets can catch up to (F-84B nerf pls)

Merlin spitfire magic number. Set radiator to 100% until climb is finished then go for 45% 117% mixture bellow 1k, 107%-103% mixture bellow 2k, 97% mixture bellow 3k, 87% mixture bellow 4k, 77% above 4500m. Prop pitch: 85% for speed and energy fighting. 100% for turn and climb. Climb at 26 degree at 200kph and u will out climb anything in a MK VC up to 3400m (10000ft) Best way to force people to fight you if you didn't manage to outclimb them is to let them chase you then pull them down bellow 3k. Roll and zig zag until they outdive you. Once that happen its pretty easy to adjust for the final killing blow. Beside that ALWAYS check your mixture/alt set, even in a fight. Spitfire lose a lot of performance because gaijin auto pilot on mouse aim set their mixture to 70 and prop pitch 60. With manual engine control you can outclimb and out turn anything in a dime. Last note for max ammo conservation+damage its good practice to only fire when you can see the enemy plane colour without zoom. Turn off your range indicator as that rule means smaller planes take closer distance to see colour.

Please add the Free French camoflauge to the LF MK IX & please add the captured German Spitfire to the German tree.

Its sensitive on control don't pull full stick on start of pull, start only with 1/3 to 1/2 pull and pull more only to adjust quickly the fins on spitfire go 90 degree which is basicly flat as an airbreak but it allow for hard turn if done correctly.

it's really not even that big of a deal. its greatest weaknesses were range and temperamental nature (any damage or poor construction on the wings, for example, would disproportionately affect the Spitfire compared to most other fighters). range isn't really a big deal in War Thunder though.

If it’s not a merlin spitfire, it’s not a real spitfire

This is content you wont get from any other games! TOP NOTCH!

My favorite is the LF-mk-IX-c

I think I might be wrong here but you should check out how roman numerals work IX=9 not 11 (5:02)

LF Mk 9 is my favourite.

I did not like to fly Spita which i have now. Its a very unstable and hard to trim gun platform(early versions), completely different to flying in WT in comparision to Spits from IL2 1946. Maybe i will fly them better in Griffon engine versions. Btw, Spits MK1 used in french campaign over Dunkirk used a 87 octane fuel , theirs flight characteristics were inferior to Bf109E. After start Battle of Britain a 100octane fuel was used , from this moment Spits get speed equal with Messershmidt's. Additionally three blade, constant speed prop with variable pitch makes plane better than previous two blade constant pitch propeller.

0:27 I really wish they would have said, "But today , were.."
