Product Description
The Seafire Mk IIc was developed from the standard Spitfire Mk Vc fighter. It did however incorporate some of the changes necessary to make it suitable for Naval use, namely a fuselage that had strengthening plates fitted,arrestor hook and catapult spools. The wings still lacked wing folding, and these aircraft spent a large proportion of their lives in the open.To improve low level performance, aircraft were being fitted with Merlin 32 engines, driving 4 blade Rotol props. This enabled them to be faster than their replacements, the Mk III. References disagree on markings/colours and the kit includes is our interpretation for these schemes.
