I was looking around for some threads on tehe wishlist concerning the Spitfire Mk.XII. A few of the community has been educated about the a/c and I've decided to be the whiner I am and ask for one. I didn't know that it was such an unknown plane to everyone else!

Guppy35's got tonnes of info the perk-to-be so I'm sure he'll lend a hand.

Well the problem is that the F Mk.21 never fought in WWII, while the Griffon IV Mk.XII entered service and fought in the war. I would personally admire the LF IX with +25lb. boost being in the game, but some say it's too good for this game

Turns almost as good as a Mk.V with that extra boost and has regular tips to help it do that. Climbs much batter than even an LF VIII (which we have in the game, but o well, i can dream...

So let's get some votes people!

This has been rehashed many a time.

Meh, then at the risk of being hashed again, let it be known that the Spitfire XII is one great plane and should be in the game.

There's six too many Spits in this game as it is.

Can never have too many variants of any ac in a flight game.

YES droop snoot for the win! A Spit IX with additional rear-fuselage fuel would be fun too.

Anyway, Guppy, I've recently found out that Spitfire Mk.IX's, XIV's and XVI's had rear fuel tanks fitted to them beginning in 1945.

Dr.Price's book says that they had 75 Imp.Gal. fuel tanks while a cross section i found in a different book of a Spitfire F.Mk.IX (c-wing, merlin tail) had a 29 Imp.Gal. fuel tank. Any answers?
