Only ever seen pictures of Vc's with the 4x20mm option.
1 maybe 2 Mk VIII's
IX's had a problem with heating the outer cannon on each wing.
Dan will correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think they flew operationally with 4x20mms, (or it's rarer that rocking horse doodoo).
4x20mm didn't become standard until the Mk.21 .
Oh - It's just a IX , no c designation. Only had IX and IXe, wing type was dropped after the V's, only change was to show an 'e' wing type.

anybody else see the humor that the 'source' the OP used is from a FighterAce wiki?

Yes.

having flown the spit IXc back in FA all those years ago it was heavy and took away everything good about the spit. If you haven't got the skills to kill with 2 x 20mm hispano then you don't need 2 more.
Just fly a hurricane instead it can take a few more hits Head on ;).
However I would like to see a proper seafire, a clipped Mk V with a super dooper engine and a Spit mk XII.

How much more uber of a AC do you need to fly? -1 on spit IXc

You realize it would be less "uber" than any two stage Merlin Spit we already have, right?
It is, of course, a bad idea, but "uber" it would not be.

The Spitfire IXc did not exist. Just the Spitfire IX and the IXe.
They did not employ 4 cannon Spitfire IX. We've had this discussion way too many times. There was a single RAAF VIII that shows up in photos that was equipped with 4 cannons for intercepting high altitude Japanese Dinahs.
Th only operational 4 cannon Spitfires were used as ground attack birds and had the large tropical air filter as well under the nose. They were not air to air.
Whoever did that page hasn't much of a clue about Spits and their history. He's clearly writing it to fit his fantasies about four cannon Spits.
The C wing was a designation used on the Spitfire V as it had three wing types. The A wing which was the 8 303 mg bird. The B wing which had 2 20mm with 60 rounds each in drum mags and 4 303s. The C wing was the Universal Wing. It could house 8 303, 2 20mm and 4 303 or 4 20mm. Again, this was not used outside of the ground attack squadron in the MTO. One of the reasons beyond the weight was the inability to heat the outer cannon bay. This in itself made use in the ETO impossible and it just wasn't done.
And before someone says it. The Vc Spits sent to Malta with 4 cannon had two removed as soon as they got there to save weight, and improve performance.

Didn't the werbie only had like 3 built and it was added to the game. This is a wishlist. if they built one and it saw combat it should be added at some time.

Forty something Wirblewinds were built. In addition, the Germans had numerous other quad 20mm AA vehicles.
No four cannon Spitfire Mk IXs were built. None.

When I see the word, spit, uber come in mind right away. I just thought that one having 4 x 20mm would make it more uber.

I want a Spit V with 8 .303s...

Late Vc clipped/clapped/cropped Merlin 55M. Those are teasing words!

No you don't. And neither did the RAF, which is why they quit making Spitfire Va :)

A Seafire L III would be much welcomed, IMO.

In fact let me rewish this
I wish for every mark and model of the spitfire that ever flew in WW2 and saw some combat.
And the same go'es for every other type and model of aircraft :) :aok :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray
