New screenies of the Seafire Mk IIc.

Looks nice.  I like the hook deployment.

Should be able to sub as a 1942 Spit VC as well, same boost and armament, just with a hook added.

I agree.  I was actually starting to get somewhat concerned about the Seafire Mk III and the potential negative effect it might have.

That, and the gap between the Spitfire Mk V's adoption of the universal wing and the availability in useful numbers of the Spitfire Mk IX that was left open.  The Seafire Mk IIc can fill that gap as a stand in.

So are we not getting the Seafire III? I'm confused.

Now that the SeaFire has a hook and really looks like a Royal Navy fighter i say when they do the hurricans they add a seahawk.

No, its the same as before, a Seafire IIC. Looks identical to the current AH Seafire.

If it was in any way different, they would have said so.

Seafire LIIC has a 4 bladed prop and a low alt Merlin, kinda the Seafire IIIs "beta version", if you will, many had clipped wings.
