Title: Seafire MKIIC= ???
Post by: spit16nooby on April 24, 2008, 04:13:36 PM

I flow the seafire for the first time last night and really liked it and was wondering what the most similar land version of it was???

I find it to be more like the Spit 9.

The actual Seafire MkIIC though, I'm pretty sure is a Spitfire V, whether or not it 'feels' like it. I'll check though.

Closest to a Spitfire Vc

I think its between a 5&9, slower then a 9 like the 5 but with the ammo load of a 9

it falls apart like all the spits, just lob any kind of round at it, and a wing pops off......if flown well it's quite good though...but it lacks blue paint.

It is more a less a Spit V with extra cannon shells and carrier landing equipment.  I have attached the link below from Soda's aircraft evaluation website.  It is a good write up on this bird.  Take some time to review his site writeups on all sorts of aircraft in AH.  Good source for info!
