CREDITS TO RAMBOJUTTER FOR THE FLOATS AND WIZARD2017 FOR THE MAIN BODY OF THE AIRCRAFT PLEASE GO CHECK THEM AND THEIR WORK OUT IT’S AMAZING. History: The Supermarine Type 335 Floatplane was the fastest floatplane of WW2 but however couldnt match the Japanese floatplanes when it came to manoeuvrability. It was a Spitfire Mk IX converted to have two floats instead of landing gear. It had a top speed of 607 km/h (377 mph) at 6000m (19,700 ft) and had a 50 gallon auxilliary tank with a range of 1240 km (770 miles) at 362 km/h (225 mph) and 3050m (10,000 ft). About the build: I’m sorry it doesnt spawn great in the water but it takes off and flies fine as I have tested it myself. If you have any other problems or bugs please do let me know. This is my first aircraft so I am quite happy with it. Thanks for downloading!
