Good news is Skuzzy is passing all the info to Pyro, so you never know, fingers crossed for a Merlin 32 Seafire IIc.

Two minor model changes -
a) 4 bladed prop
b) Ord options, single 500lb bomb or 500gal drop tank.

It would be an L.IIC then, any Seafire converted to a Merlin 32 was an L.IIC at that point.

As for ord, the Seafire IIC we have now should have a DT and BOMB option both in any case. It had the Universal wing, just like the Spit VC.

...Anyways maybe we will get something out of it, either a better ord package and or an engine upgrade, or both.

why does everyone complain about spitfires so much they are good planes no reason to hate on them for being good planes.

This was an OLD thread.

Was trying to get the representative Seafire IIc (Merlin 32) as opposed to the rarest IIc EVER built (Merlin 46).
Bearing in mind the IIc overall was one of the lowest numbers production    Seafires anyway.

In fact the Merlin 46 Seafire may not have had 166 as I first thought, maybe as low as 110 out of the whole production run.
