Because it was the bestest and I can't go on any longer without it. :cry

The Vc was a "DA special"

The SpitV that we have now used to be alot more effective an airplane. You could consider it the Spit8 of the old days (somewhat exaggerating there) iirc it had 240 hispano rounds instead of 120 (i never flew it but alot of others did)

Was there some other difference besides the lightened ammo load?

It looked like a Vb but flew with the ammo of a Vc and the Performance of an LFV.

The Seafire we have is essentially a Royal Navy version of the Spitfire Vc

The Seafire doesn't fly like the old Vc though, at least that I can remember. Not to mention we can have a clipped Vc. :D

Guppy, you down for a clipped 42 Spitfire.
