Supermarine Spitfire

641 UPTOSPACE345  4.1 years ago

This aircraft is popularity incarnate, being known by almost everybody who is interested in fighter planes. It was used extensively by the RAF during the second world war, despite having a few issues. The biggest of these flaws is the fact that its engine is fed fuel by a carborator, which essentially means it can't fly inverted for long. This version is free of these issues, which will hopefully make up for the dodgy details and wing shapes. Feel free to let me know if it has any issues.

Edit: version with better wings here:
